Morning Preston,
Excellent info here, just one small problem, my system does not have the
capability to open and view the videos. I get an "Insufficient" memory
error. Is there anyone that can copy/ download these videos to a cd so that
they can be played on a dvd player? or can that be done. I would like to see
the videos, but my graphics, screen size and hardware make it difficult. Can
they be copied and viewed on a TV?
Jimi
Jimi,
The 'anchor' is an essential part of spey casting. It
refers to setting a small portion (line/leader section
near fly) for a brief moment of time on the top of
water to create surface tension. This tension loads
the rod which then enables you to do a forward stroke
and launch your fly line.
Because spey fishing only requires surface tension to
load your rod there are many ways to casts.
Check out http://www.questoutdoors.net/skills/spey/
There's videos to show you some casts.
They have fancy names such as double spey, single
spey, snap-T, circle, switch, snake, perry poke, to
name a few!
Keep in mind all spey casts can be done with a single
hand rod as well. Just a lot trickier since you don't
have all the leverage with a shorter rod.
Hope that helps,
Preston
