Christopher, thanks. In thinking about it, the fly may have made a splt. The "loop" was not a tight one as I was getting used to casting where there were lots of trees and only a small 10-15' break in the trees to make a back cast. Couldn't do roll cast (or can you...without line on water?) because I was away from the bank.

Will watch how the fly lands next time.

Always enjoy your postings, and the great pictures.

Have added to profile. l.
