Featherweight 0 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Hi all,A rare opportunity here in Adelaide not to be missed!Renown fly fisher Peter Morse will be conducting a fly casting course here in Adelaide on Sunday 25th July. I hope this doesn't offend any forum rules, I am not affiliated with Peter anf thought this information would be a service to other fly fishers!Fly Casting Day with Peter Morse Federation of Fly Fishers CertifiedMaster Casting InstructorWhether you’re a beginner or an advanced caster we all have somethingto learn. I think the best thing we can learn are sufficient skills tobe able to analyse your own cast (or a mates) to the point where youcan figure out what’s going wrong and correct it.There are 5 Essentials to good fly casting – with just one of theseEssentials missing you can’t throw a good, effective, and efficientcast.- No slack in the line.- The correct stroke length for the amount of line you have out, andfor the bend in the rod.- A constant and smooth rate of acceleration.- A straight line path of the tip of the rod.- A correct pause front and back as you wait for the line.Even many advanced casters don’t completely understand theseprinciples but learn them, understand them, and apply them and youwill immediately become a better caster.Date Sunday 25th JulyCost $150 ppWhere TBAStart time 8.30 rig up – 9.00 start.Finish time 4.00pmSome tackle can be provided – a BRIGHT ORANGE OR ANY OTHER BRIGHTCOLOURED LINE IS A BIG HELP, clear intermediate lines are difficult tosee and therefore analysing the loop is next to impossible if you useone.Bring water, lunch, sunscreen, a folding chair, a note pad, hat,sunnies, line cleaner and an open mind.Peter Morse - Fly Fisherman, writer, photographer.Team Sage.FFF Master Certified Casting Instructor.PO Box 7033LeuraNSW 2780 - Australia(0061) 2 478211980422607038 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
