Fly Casting - Part One

Most fly-fishermen do not attend a professional casting school, they normally learn under the eye of a friend. Unfortunately this often leads to the person copying bad habits. A visit to a professional instructor would soon prove this point. Often you will see this at the waterside, people fishing well below their potential.

A good rod and a good line do make a difference to fly-casting; however, the correct procedure is most important for the fly fisherman to reach his potential. Having acquired some skill gives the angler a much better idea of exactly what will improve his casting.
