Flycasting, so simple that instructors need to make it complicated since 1685

Got a Q++ at casting school, wearing shorts ;)

Cheers Lasse
Same here, long time no practice- summer just started here and its super hot and dry- no ideal for casting. Yesterday I could not skip the oportunity to cast with that wind though.
3 positives, 1 negative from yesterday
1) new PB and CAN DO attitude
2) focus on line managment on the ground with this conditions
3) wind of 25km/h my to go head for ST would be 17.5m long- works well for me

1) sunburn on my neck. Too exited to put a sunscreen

I'd swap you hot and dry for wet and cold 😂

Put on some sunblock before you go out again 😉
