  • In this episode of RIO's "How To" series RIO brand manager Simon Gawesworth demonstrates and explains "How To Perfect A Forward Cast". In this film Simon explains what to look for in a good forward cast, and shows the three commonest casting mistakes people tend to make on their forward cast. The film is an excellent instructional tool for improving the forward cast, and explains how to easily recognize what is going wrong by watching the loop on the forward cast.
    RIO's "How To" videos are a series of short films that explain all you need to know to learn a particular way to fish, or cast. Where applicable, each film talks through the gear that you need, shows how to rig the gear, how to read the water, and how to fish that particular technique. These educational films are packed with information and top tips designed to improve the knowledge and skill level of all fly fishers. Each one is bought to you by a RIO employee or a RIO brand ambassador.

    I think this is the hardest thing to perfect as a new fly fisherman. I think by the end of the season if I keep fishing as much as I am I'll get my loops much tighter. My back cast seems to be really good buy my forward casts are sloppy. The back cast naturally has translation and then rotation but my forward cast gets early rotation. I think I'll have to get some footage of me casting sometime to study.

      It certainly is, and most people don't really know how to correct the mistakes, hence the video. Glad you enjoyed this one too.

      I only had one day fishing, but got four very nice trout! (And a few perch too.)

    Presented well. I have people watch this when I am teaching them to cast. For me it is aggression when I am casting big flies on sinking line, seems to get worse when I am in a boat for some reason.

      @@FarBank immensely, it's misleading for some to say fly fishing is simple, but the difficulty is shadowed by the enjoyment the challenge brings, and the excitement of landing a fish on a fly rod. Thanks for all the helpful videos, I would be lost if it wasn't for the online fly fishing community

    I’m 71 and took up fly fishing 4 1/2 months ago. I found an instructor 2 1/2 hours away and this spring I’ll start my lessons, to say the least I’m very excited. In the meantime I read, watch videos and practice casting 25+ minutes a day. I love casting!
    I think that I’m doing well but my concern is what if I put a bad casting stroke into my muscle memory. With another two or three months before getting my formal lessons is it alright to continue to practice?
    I am constantly taking videos to monitor my progress.

    It’s funny but in a golf swing, despite what you think you’re doing, the ball tells you what you actually did. In a cast it’s the line that lets you know.

      Good question! a number of people have similar concerns, and while there is a danger of developing poor muscle memory, it takes a few years to do so and get to a point that it is a problem,
