Beginner Casting

I made a few good casts today (my first time out), but I am not quite sure what I am doing wrong. Does anyone know of some online video help? I’m more of a visual learner. Thanks!

Try this one.

yup, if you can handle the language.

JC, I assume you’re kidding. There’s no bad language onthe site that I’m aware of. It is also the only site I am aware of with casting instruction videos, which is specifically what this poster requested.

If FAOL ever adds videos, I hope you’ll do at least one of you giving casting instructions. Really.

Thanks for the site, it is great. It’s got the videos I was looking for, but the casting instructions are written out and explained thoroughly and yet very easy to understand. Can’t wait to get out and practice what I learned.

from the front page,“remind you: don’t fuckup. 10-3”
Glad you like that kind of language??? OF? (hint) it sounds like truckup…
We don’t use that kind of SHIT here…

JC, I was a bit shocked to hear you say that you found that expression on the site, so I just went back at looked for it. I didn’t read the whole site --just the home page, the intro to the fly casting section, the first casting lesson, and a random sample of others. I didn’t find any bad language on any of these pages

I did find that the site had changed since I had used it, though. It now has far fewer videos.

I’m not defending the sexyloops site; I’m “defending” myself. I respect FAOL’s values and would not knowingly respond to a thread here with a referral to a site that had grossly (pun intended) different values.

Be shocked all you want by what I write and ‘enjoy’ the crap they do.

Undoubtedly the best fish spotter I know and a tremendous fish catcher. Fishing with Deano is fun, wet and exciting. He should never have been given walkie talkies… “Paul, PAUL, PAUL!!! Before you make this cast I’d just like to remind you: don’t fuckup. 10-3”
ya need the link too?

I would never knock another site even if it was a piece of crap. Some dorks like that stuff.
If you enjoy that site perhaps we are a bit on the dull side and you are wasting your time here being shocked at my accusations. Easy way to fix that.

here is a casting video i hope no one is offended by.
