I've only been fly fishing for a couple of years, but with a full time job and a young family my time on the water has been limited. (not that I'm complaining, family first ) I learned a great deal about casting from watching Doug Swisher's videos from Scientific Angler. I may not be doing it exactly right, but more times than not, I do put the fly where I want it and I've caught a few fish. We have a lot of trees in our yard and we keep mulch piled up around the trees. That is my target when I'm practicing in the yard. The mulch under the trees, for me and the places I fish, it makes it a more realistic practice session. Of course, as you can tell from my user name, I do miss.
