    Highly recommend the Mike Kinney recommendation. He does a free spey clinic every sunday morning in Monroe Washington and i went there for several years when I was there on vacation. This year I hired him for an all day lesson -- told him that I was at the end on my rope with this 2 handed thing and it was do or die -- if I couldn't do it when I finished with the lesson then I was not going to fool around with it anymore. He had me dialed in by the end of the day -- casting over 100 ft with his long rods and long belly line. Mike is the real deal!

    Worth the trip the time and the money to learn from Mike.

    One addition to my post about finding Mr. Kinney. I know I said he would have you casting 90 feet in no time and that your original post ask for how to fish not how to cast. I think the two are one of the same if you cannot cast a two handed rod you will not be able to fish a two handed rod. At any rate I still say look up Mike Kinney if you make it to Poppy's gig. Mike is one of the fishyest guys I know and he can also teach you more about fishing a two handed rod then most of the casting instructors out there can all together.

  3. It's not as hard as it sounds. A 30 ft cast will catch a lot of fish.
