Gentleman, I could use some help. After 27 years of fly fishing, I have gone
and putzed up my casting techniqe and can't get it worked out.
About 4 years ago I built a Sage SP+ rod. Love the rod for river fishing and
can cast a mile with it. However, when I switch to a slower action rod like
my DS II, I throw too tight a loop with it and end up having the fly catch
the line as I shoot it forward on my final cast. Sometimes it happens on the
forward cast and other times it happens on the final cast and shoot. I have
tried slowing my cadence down which solves my problem but my casting distance
goes in the toilet. Any thoughts on the issue?
