Thank you for your replies.
I did think this, Paul, which makes sense as this is what we were discussing last weekif we haul as the rod is unloading (which we do) and if we are accelerating the line with the haul, then we must be adding load to the rod.

I've seen a few people with white dots on the line, could Rio modify your lines to incorporate some white dashes at certain points? Would be a good line for research.
Maybe this is why some students haul before minimum chord length, because they think it's just a spring?Incidentally if we haul before MCL then hauling must be adding some load and in this case additional bend. How much advantage is there in this?
That's a sign of reassurance right thereIf hauling early and creating additional rod bend was of importance you can be sure even Lasse would be doing it.

Great videos, Lasse! That's really clear mate, think you just sent me one last week


All the best!
