Absolutely. I’m quite sure that I release closer to MCL than RSP with the backcast. Forward cast I don’t know exactly what I do. I only discovered I was doing an extreme form of “slide loading” on the forward cast (because I was slipping/shooting line at the beginning of the stroke) and I noticed this on video. However I may well be releasing pre RSP on the forward cast too.I think this might be somewhat similar to Paul's touch haul on the snakehead pickup?
I really must video this because I think it’s breaking a few “rules” particularly with regards the release. Releasing just prior to RSP is one thing. Releasing around MCL is quite another. I have a couple of orange Infinity lines in the post to me. I’ll zebra mark one up when they arrived.
(The list of videos I have to make is amazing! When wife is here I’ll spend a day casting with the camera! )
Cheers, Paul
