Learning to Flycast

The great outdoors is a provider of a vast variety of ways to relax. These methods can range from camping to hiking to even snow skiing. Though the most effective way to escape from the world and into nature is through fly-fishing. Fly-fishing can place you in the middle of a peaceful stream but yet on the outskirts of a developing world.

Take the pieces of the rod and put them together, arranging the guides in a straight line. Attach the fly reel and pull out some of the line. Take the line and run it though all of the guides, making sure not to miss any of them. Once your preparations are complete, you can begin the fly casting process.Find a quiet, unobstructed place to practice. The best place to practice is on your lawn.

Hold the rod so that it is pointing straight out at King 2waist level. Using your forearm, lift the rod straight up to the point just past vertical.
