Getting to the river, lake, estuary, or ocean is the easy part. The hard part is putting the fly in the right place so you have a chance to catch a fish. In this definitive guide, Tom Deck, head of casting instruction at the Orvis Fly-Fishing School in Manchester, Vermont, explains exactly how to cast. In a thorough, concise style, Deck teaches readers the same techniques that have drawn anglers to the Orvis School since 1968. Topics covered include: setting up the rod, proper grip and stance; the forearm and wrist in fly casting; applying power to the casting stroke; false casting, roll casting and roll-cast pickup; the single and double haul; and many more general as well as specialized casts. After each lesson is a section filled with coaching tips and suggestions for mental imagery, as well as a segment on troubleshooting, pointing out common problems, and how to solve them. There are also valuable chapters on casting for specific kinds of fish and in different kinds of water.
Filled with color photographs from professional photographer and fly fisherman Jim Rowinski, and with gorgeous illustrations from Bob White, this book will be the reference on fly casting for years to come.
