   Thanks for the vid’s Boonie. Bought my first fly rod today, gave it a shot.. I caught a pretty big tree branch.
   I couldn’t figure out how to find my rhythm. Only way I could get the distance or shoot line was with the whipping, spooking method. Was just happy to be out there trying though. I’ve only watched the first four lessons and I already feel like I could start catching fish and look like a legit fly fisher. Thanks for the scientific approach towards fly fishing.

   Just get out and fish. There are usually some good regional magazines to help you decide good times/fly selection. I started out by asking around at the local fly shops and striking up conversations with other fisherman on the river. If you are polite and honest about your abilities you will be amazed how willing people are to pass along some knowledge. Good luck and tight loops.

    dale and ardeth, my bet would be that your backcast angle is too steep, and/or that you apply force a bit too late. both these things can send your fly to the ground. by applying some decent acceleration to your rod right at the start of your backcast, you’ll give your line some upward momentum that will help. for the angle, look at your rod all the way through till a good one becomes a second nature. curling simply = too little or too much velocity, only practice will help there.

    You’re not pausing after your back cast. Start slow, then fling back the rod, pause and watch your fly, then go forward again. Get a rhythm going and you’ll eventually get the line to lay down properly.

    the whipping is …
    the whipping is caused by you not waiting long enough in the back cast so the line does not have time to completely make its turn. The whipping on the water means your accelerating to much and if its making whipping sounds its not having enough time on the back cast. Start slower then go faster. Make sure the loop size is perfect.
