Frequently Asked Questions
1. How can I cast effectively when there are obstructions like trees?
Casting around trees can be challenging, but with the right techniques and the right fly line with a Spey taper like the EZ Back Cast you can still make accurate casts. Consider using the Spey Casts technique, which involves making a roll cast or a Spey cast to avoid obstacles and deliver your fly accurately. Watch this video explaining what a Spey taper is and how to make a roll cast.
2. What is the Steeple Cast, and when should I use it?
The Steeple Cast is a casting technique that allows you to cast your fly high in the air, creating a steep trajectory. This technique is useful when you need to cast over tall obstacles or when you want to cover a long distance with your cast. By using the Steeple Cast, you can effectively reach areas that would otherwise be difficult to access. Watch this video on how to make a Steeple cast.
3. What should I focus on during my back cast?
When executing your back cast, it's essential to look at your back cast to ensure proper line control and accuracy. By observing your back cast, you can identify any issues or tangles before making your forward cast. This attention to detail will help you make smoother and more precise casts.
4. Should I use an open stance when casting?
Yes, using an open stance can greatly improve your casting technique. An open stance allows for better body rotation and weight transfer, resulting in more power and control during your cast. By positioning your feet slightly apart and facing your target, you can optimize your casting performance. We made a video on the subject.
5. What is the Overhang Marker® and how can it benefit my casting?
The Overhang Marker® is a visual reference point on your fly line that helps you determine the optimal amount of overhang for your cast. By adjusting the amount of overhang, you can customize your cast to achieve tighter loops and improve accuracy. The Overhang Marker® is a valuable tool for anglers looking to fine-tune their casting technique. This video explains this crucial point.
6. Which fly line is best for limited back casting spaces?
It is crucial to have a fly line designed to overcome those challenges. Your casting technique may involve using a shorter stroke or utilizing roll casts to effectively present your fly. The EZ Back Cast takes care of this with it's triangle taper. A tried and tested head shape that makes roll casting effortless when needed.
