It is Vince. But, isn't it fun when you can read your loop and make adjustments accordingly.
For instance, I was having issues making long casts with a 9 wt and a heavy fly into the wind fishing in the surf. At first my fly would kick up on layout. Not enough to to tail or tangle, but enough to rob distance. The challenge then became what to change to accommodate. I tried to hit later but struggled. Lasse ended up helping me realize less arc would make timing more simple with the heavier rod and fly. So, I took out some wrist set which eliminated some early rotation, added some translation and easily made the adjustment.
A fun knotty little problem.
Happy New Year Vince.
