Product Description

The graceful art of fly-casting is a mystery to the casual observer and most newcomers to the sport of game fishing. Here, with the help of one of the country s most famous casting experts Michael Evans; we go a long way to solving that mystery. Michael s precise but simplistic approach, allows even the complete novice to gain the necessary skills to cast a fly to an awaiting trout. Breaking the cast down into various stages, he will show you that what appears to be a complex procedure, can with practice, easily become second nature. There is advice on suitable equipment and on how it should be set up, and some fascinating night time shots which illuminate the path of well cast and for the sake of demonstration, sometimes not so well cast lines. Michael takes time to point out the most common faults that he sees when teaching and shows you how to eradicate them. This DVD is a must for any newcomer having problems getting to grips with the basics of fly-casting, or indeed for any fly fisherman/woman who needs a refresher to brush up on their existing skills.

Customer Reviews

To the point - all you need to start practising!
Of all the instructional fly-fishing videos I have seen, this is by far the best one. Michael Evans covers all the basic techniques and presents a simple approach to fly casting. He doesn't complicate matters by discussing beautiful scenery or different species of fish. This DVD covers casting and nothing else - and that's exactly what you need to focus on as a beginner in the sport (or art?) of fly fishing. What makes this video stand out is how clearly Michael explains and demonstrates common mistakes and how to correct them.
