Maybe, maybe not. I agree that the casting practice advocated was not going
to be particularly useful.

If not fly fishing, casting problems when game fishing are usually those
associated with spinning, worming or prawning heavily bushed in streams. In
this case a casting course round a mature garden is probably of more use.
Put targets under overhanging branches, between closely spaced plants and so
on. The advantage is that you can walk over and untangle the misses. Try
first with the single bomb and then -if- you intend to fish with
leads/floats or other encumbrances on the line set up a two-lead practice
dummy to experience the pendulum effect.

Titus was right about one thing though; as with fly casting, accuracy and
stealth are far more use in the long run than distance.

Cheerio,

This is someway off your area (Wiltshire) but Jim Williams is a very
competent guy and it will not cost an arm and a leg.
See www.troutcasting.com

It would have been difficult to cast if it had cost an arm and a leg
