Fly Casting Tip: Say Hello to a Good Cast

Say Hello to good casting

Here is another tip to help you to get used to starting and stopping the rod at the correct angles.

Imagine you’re using an old wall telephone, standing a couple of feet away. Say “hello” when you bring your rod hand smartly back beside your ear, keeping your arm perpendicular, and then “whisper” goodbye as the phone returns to the cradle.

Again, perform this with crisp stops and starts and you will be stopping the rod correctly.
