I think I got this backwards.. My rod I use most is slow action as it bends
from the handle to the tip, and the one I'm talking about trying is stiffer
(fast action) and only bends on the tip end 1/3 of the rod, Chuck

Tony: Now that you say that..My rod is very fast action.. I think it is
fast action when the rod bends easily right??? I'll have to try my 9ft old
rod that is a slow action, Thanks, Chuck

Slow down the cast. Some rods just don't like heavy
flies.

Folks: I noticed the other day that I am still
having a heck of a time casting flies with any
weight to them at all. They just want to "lob" out a
very short distance.. I don't know what I'm doing
wrong.. I tend to want to do like a lure and caster
harder, and that just makes things worse.. Any
pointers would be appreciated. Thanks, Chuck
