Double Haul Casting

coordination. Between now and death, I will eventually get it, but meanwhile is there any hint on how to make the klutz in my double haul cast go away? Just asking...TIA

See if you can't find a group lesson with Simon Gawesworth of Rio Products.
He travels the US gives a great 2 day lesson. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Are you still wasting your time with spam?... There is a solution!"

Double Haul Casting
If you can cast normally, or if you can normally cast - even if somewhat
abnormally - then it's probably a mater of timing. Forget the haul part. Just give the line hand a little downward flick of the wrist (as if shaking water off when the gas station is out of paper towels) during your power stroke and see what that does. Chances are it will be sufficient to dramatically increase your line speed and and give you a sense of timing if you want to use the whole arm later... ....worked for me... john "LDR" wrote in message k.net...
