Default Fly fishing from a canoe?

Will it be harder as a beginner to learn to cast from the boat?


One thing I did not address in my previous post. I am no casting or
casting-teaching expert, but I would think that you should practice casting
while standing before doing so from the boat. Get the dynamics of fly line
casting down first (and if you've looked at previous ROFF posts on this
topic, look for local fly shop/club/class settings where you can get
instruction), then go out on the canoe.

Oh, and watch JR's video on how to remove a hook from someone's skin. :-)
