Adaptability, to enable them to deliver the fly where they need to, in the desired presentation using the range of available equipment in the environment that they are likely to fish. It means giving them the ability to solve their own problems.How do you describe "better performance" for recreational anglers in the UK?
Many people search the web for medical advice without checking to see if the source got their doctorate from the University of Hamsters. I can’t regulate the internet or how people gather information.would suggest anyone searching the web for instruction may not have your insights into the details of Dan’s curriculum vitae.
I don’t have time to review the video now, I’m on the road for a couple of days and teaching after work. It is entirely possible that maximising line speed is not his objective and that distance casting for him is limited by his fishing objective. I spend a lot of my time fishing 2-3 wt lines with 7-8ft rods, occasionally with bamboo, what should I classify distance fishing cast as? Would the coastal sea trout casters have the same distance is mind? In context, his answer is reasonable given the inherent variability in the sport.How about Fly Casting 101 by Jeff Wagner? How do you equate the contribution of Jeff’s hips and shoulders compared to his arm movement to line speed? He defines distance casting as “whatever is longer for you” so that covers quite a range of recreational fishing distances. Good definition.
As I have mentioned before, I view excessive rod hand speed as the cause of many problems for recreational anglers. I can reach the vast majority of my desired fishing distances with comparatively modest rod hand speeds. The threshold speed for me is determined by the objective.
You may find that you get more purchase if you don’t present it in terms of distance casting. Can you explain how you would teach an underpowered curve cast using your model?A lot but that does not impact the that reflects the casting model’s applicability and in this case it is highly applicable.
I doubt it John but can you describe the concept of late rotation using text, any simpler than \\\\\\\/?We are all guilty of throwing these generalisations about without clarification. Maybe that's both a constraint of forums or reflective of our cognitive capacity. It is the latter with me.
