If I want to get some distance, false casting is necessary.

I'll accept that it may be necessary for you (and maybe others)...but it
isn't necessary.

And, yes, I do it all the time, effectively too.

That's fair enough, but just because some find it necessary or effective
doesn't mean that it IS necessary or effective for all (or at all).


Well, if you can pull 60 feet of line off your reel and cast it 60
feet without using a false cast, good luck. I'd pay money to see that
one.

.....no, not hot big-boobed babes drooling over your rig!

I'm having no luck tossing out my lone oversized dry BWO (#12). OTOH, I've
improved my casting immensely. In light of that fact, I actually broke down
and spent big bucks on 3 flies from my local premier FF shop. The guy on
duty seemed to know his flies, but didn't know the basic nX equation for
tippets, so I'm not sure of any advice he offered other than to rig 'em as a
pair. So, the question is, what's the best way to rig a dual nymph
offering. I have a BH pheasant and a Dunn's emerger. I also got a hotwire
prince, but I figure that's a solo rig. What say ye? TIA

nb

What? No pheasant tail? Try nymphing with just one nymph as others
have suggested. I'm a pretty good nympher and never fail to take fish
using that method, and I seldom, if ever, use more than one.

You can use more than one without getting tangles by simply using a
circle cast - when your fly drifts past and below you on the stream,
simply pick up the line and lob it upstream without any false casting.


Um, why would one false cast a nymph (or a nymph rig)?

To get line out. Duh!

Well, **** fire and save matches, why not just pull some of that there
fishing strang outta the top of yer pole and sling it like it was a
lasso...?

No actual reply to the issue -- just over the top bull****, as usual.

You certainly wouldnt pass the fff CCI test. A use of false casting is
to extend the distance of your cast.

This one has ya beat, Louie - Non sequitur, incorrect in both fact and
assumption, AND anonymous...and just to add a little fuel to the fire...

From the MCI study material:

"Instructors typically mention three uses for a
false cast...."

SNICKER,

Thus prompting one to wonder, what word or part thereof of the two simple
words, "I'm done," is within your understanding?
