Question: How do you set things up to get the best contrast where you can see the line? We don't have any big blue walls around here.

Just read this. Yeah, a lot of terms expire this year. Hopefully Molly stays on. Meeting people where they are is important, physically, financially, skill-wise .... We just were talking about that on our CCI candidates Zoom meeting last night. Hopefully the incoming BoGs will be more sensible and m...

Why? Ego. Or maybe they can't remember (or never knew) who actually DID create the [fly, cast, technique]. We know that in Maslow's hierarchy, we all want to feel esteemed in our tribe.

This is such a good post that I've read it all the way through, although I had to reread Merlin's initial post and completely bypassed the posts with equations. I have some thoughts, albeit possibly erroneous, and a question. When making the "hard stop," one is supposedly accelerating up to the poin...

Hi, Nicholas. In watching my tracking last night very closely, trying to ensure my thumb is always pointing directly back, I saw some very minor deviations that show up at the end of the loop unrolling on casts >40 feet/12.2 meters (could also be the nagging wind here).
