The nice thing about doing one Lasse and not four all at once - for me anyway - is that I look forward to the change. But I do the same thing in fishing, so it might be more of a personal thing :cool:

Goodnight chaps!

Cheers, Paul
Oh, I also do one at at time, I just like to combine them now and again, brings everything together :blush:

Happy casting

Cheers

90 'without the left hand or with the left hand?
I haven’t got to 90’ yet with the left. A little ways to go. I learned a vast amount tonight and without doubt by best left handed session. How’s Lasse going?

Cheers, Paul

Great! I’m pretty sure I’ll get there within the month. I’m certainly giving it a good go!

It’s funny I didn’t realise how important the small twist is at the end of the haul. And I have no idea why it matters!

Something else that I find quite fascinating is how aerielised anchors originating from Snaps are far easier to control than without the Snap. I can understand that when comparing aerielised Snap Lift Single Spey to the aerielised Single Spey. But it also applies to the Aerielised Snake Roll where you are better to make two snap movements than a spiral.

The left hand is fascinating. And finally, finally I’m enjoying it :D This particular task has really given my casting development a new lease of life. Apparently you can teach an old dog new tricks!

Have fun! :cool:
