I guess my average trip is BETTER than perfect then. I've just come home from one of them, been out for over five hours and haven't made a single false cast. Roll casting is what it takes to fish those kind of lakes... these small pits of water thrown out in the woods. Back casts aren't even to think about with all those trees behind. /Nick

In the first place, the more false casts you make, the greater are the chances for the fish to see your arm waving, or the line in the air. And the greater are your chances to make a mistake in the cast and lose your timing. Most anglers, especially tyros, false cast too often. Three false casts should be sufficient for any throw and two is better. One is perfect.."
