casting for a beginner?

[SilverMallard]

Or you could just stick to fishing with poppers.

No no i'm not getting frustrated, well maybe alittle bit but i'm already to much in love with it to care. Appreciate the help and will be trying them out tomorrow morning at the creek.

Nope,,, ya can't try my 'How to Cast' at the creek. You CAN NOT PRACTICE casting while you are fishing! You will be too interested in fishing.

[craiga]

Ahhhh that is true. I'll try it out before i get the line wet.

Check your trajectory also.
The leader piling up is often the result of a low backcast and a consequentially high forward cast. This often happens when one first attempts false casting; they tilt their casting plane backwards.
I try and teach the beginner to throw a higher backcast and lower forward cast for a while, before playing with their casting plane.

Really.

Of course, it works better if you've got Superman at your elbow giving you hints...

Doesn't the same thing happen when you apply too much power to the forward cast?

He said he was laying out big bugs fine but when he goes small it happens.
