[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 715308, member: 5412"] That pretty much says it all for me right there. My main problem with casting was breaking my wrist, and putting line and fly in one big ball. I know now how to correct that, but on occasion I still get absent minded and fall back into bad habits. I found that wearing a long sleeve shirt or jacket with the butt stuck down in the sleeve prevents breaking the wrist over. Kind of like having a splint on your arm. I really enjoyed the part in your tutorial about the final cast, waiting until the line and fly are horizontal to the water, and the laying them down. Thats how its supposed to work.:yelclap: I still tend to slap the water with the line/fly on occasion, but when it does come together, its pure beauty. [/QUOTE]
