Tight Lines-Learning to Fly Cast Part 1

[clydelady731]

I rewatched several times the whole series.. thanks for a great foundation.

[drlophowilliamsii]

This is the best instructional video I've found online. I've been an angler since i was a small child, but never had a chance to learn Fly Fishing. I picked up my first Fly Rod yesterday and needed instruction, so this is perfect for a beginner like me. Nice job!

[mrfunnyguy557]

after you cast it out do you reel it in like a regular lure or do you let it sit out there and wait for the fish to hit

[G238productions]

Good tips, Thats my big problem is not getting my arms in the right positions.

[batstarwars2]

Hi I just got my first fly rod yesterday at Cabela's. Could you tell me what type of lure to use?

[CI321]

@batstarwars2 depends, what kind of fish will you be catching?

[G238productions]

@batstarwars2 the keyword is Match the Hatch. Look at what kind of flies, spiders, etc . . are flying around that area and try to match a fly. Most trout areas have Hatch charts that tell you what insects are hatching at what time of year.

[martyplay1000]

[pilipolio]

At last a good quality video about fly casting basics! Thanks from France, I will practise this evening on local "chevesnes"

[GumBa11Machine]

I could just flip everything right? I'm left handed.

[menacevang209]

one of the best fly casting video! you should have a podcast up! that'll be great if you did! learn how to fly cast because of these 3 videos thanks!!!!!!

[hujipher]

@StephM1982 ya that is weird but its because this is a number 1-3 series

[GregMyhre2582]

great video, i have been fly fishing for a few years now and this video and the others in the series made casting effortless compared to other training methods ive tried

[carlosliston]

I'm just getting into fly fishing and about to buy a new fly combo. I do a lot of spin fishing and if the line goes out a lot it is able to get tangled easily. Does the fly line tangle as easy as spin fishing and gotta take time to un-knot it??

[tw833]

is this the same for saltwater flyfishing

[tightlinesflyshop]

@tw833 yup! same principle apply on both fresh and saltwater.

Tight Lines,

Tim

[butcherscott]

absolutately the best straight casting video ever made. Im not posting this to compete with others jus to earn a ludicrous green thumb rating. This guy really simply without argument nails each step by step

[synthesizer301]

thanks for uploading this great informative video.

[ernflores]

excellent video. can be over exemplified, but nevertheless, excellent.

[bipolardox]

geese, I've been watching all kinds of vids & reading up a storm, and can now successfully cast about 10 ft, if aiming down wind. This is the only vid I've found that covers the "basics", how to hold, the casting motion ect. Just getting into it, never fished before and the "basics" were just what I needed. Thank you!!

[AtmaRising]

Tim is great even in his condescending, "Oh I know how to do it," which is so accurate as I speak for myself almost every time I go out and execute the wrong way again and again. Glad I found this. Thanks Tim!

[b12yan316]

This guy deserves my money. This video is informative.

[TheCrispy62]

common sense in a jungle of junk

[ed19831]

Good video!

[Zekton12]

Thanks for the video. I just picked up a fly rod and have no one to learn from but the internet. This was very helpful!!!

[JRugotzke]

Tim, very helpful. Just got my first combo and wanted to find some tips to get me out in the yard practicing. Just the right amount of info here. If I'm ever down in DePere I'll for sure swing by! Thanks

[MrNarwhals]

The best casting video's on Youtube, thank you!

[menacevang209]

I want to start fly fishing but hav'nt buy a setup yet... What should I learn first??

[lechevaliermalfet1]

this is a great video.

[HamletNOR]

These videos are just FANTASTIC! The clear and easy to understand way of explaining things are just great!!! Keep up the good work! :-)

[RainStyle967]

I've been fly fishing since i was 13 and i can tell you when you feel the fish pull on your line it's the best!

[hlake911]

@RainStyle967 just started fly fishing lol and im 13

[RainStyle967]

@hlake911 You will hate it at first and get so irritated with it but stick with it. Trust me.

[pugilist102]

@RainStyle967

Just started to fly fish and I can't cast it beyond 10 ft! I sucked at baitcasting at first too so I'm gonna stick with it.

[UDontKnoMeFromMAL]

DUDE my dads name is tim landwehr!!!!!

and he looks nothing like this dude!

[tyonthefly]

great tips. good vid.

....check out my texas salt fly fishing vids..............

[Rocklobstaa]

8:07 lol thats exactly what I did this morning on my first ever practice...... Im lovin this video

[IncisalEdges]

Having practiced with this video and part 2 in mind, I can now cast accurately from 40 to 50 feet, and I actually look like I know what Im doing. I cant catch a fish to save my life :) but my casting is getting good now. Thanks!!

[Henk738]

very good explaining! Remain accelerate to a stop!!

[paulcjohnston73]

I have learnt so much from watching these 3 videos... Fantastic, probably the best lessons on You Tube....

[IncisalEdges]

I just spent my second day (ever) practicing fly casting, and my wrist is killing me. Ive read and listened to lots of good advice, but this is the 1st video that really drilled it into my head... dont use the wrist. Ok now Im off to the 2nd video.

[patrickallain]

Is that Deer Hunter 2005 theme at the beginning?

:)

[nachasyo]

one of the better casting videos on youtubes

[siggi2cv]

Awesome video

thanks man

[drcarnage83]

As I lack the money to get lessons I can see where I'm going wrong and pick up some tips.

Very, very well done. Thank you.

[swdw973]

Unlike other videos, this is a great review for people who've been casting as your details help spot bad habits that are developing.

Good job!

[davidlars99]

very very very good job explaining!

[NCbassfishing24]

Thanks for the video. It helped me get started casting.

[wittjake]

I bought an Ugly Stick Shakespeare fly pole (about $50) just to start out and I was thinking about buying a new pole. What pole do you prefer? I would like to spend $150 or less.

Thanks

[SilentInLoud]

I have find out the easy way to learn Fly Fishing and the correct way to read the water. Thank u.

[Rogerblabla]

Thank you these videos have help out my casting tremendously !

[briman62]

i'm brand new to fly casting. how did you attach that yarn? just fold it over and tie some leader around it?

[FishTheMargins]

briman, just tie a couple of overhand knots around it. Nothing special needed.

[Carlitox04091992]

Excellent demonstration of joan wulff's book: Fly casting accuracy. I had so much doubts but now I don't have any question
