ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 มิ.ย. 2024
- The second episode of season two of RIO's "How To" series features RIO brand manager Simon Gawesworth teaching, demonstrating and explaining "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. - กีฬา
This was easily the best one of these I found.
I agree. And mad river outfitters has a great series
Top notch instruction. Concise, clear, well edited. No rambling.
Thanks Benjamin :)
Thank you so much, this video was a game changer. I literally went from frustration to the point of quitting fly fishing, to catching fish the next day! Honestly I couldn't thank you enough.
That's really good to hear - thanks for your comments, Robert, we are delighted that you enjoyed (and learned from) the video.
The best instruction series I've watched. Simon Gawesworth is professional perfection. This video and the others with Mr. Gawesworth are an investment in time rather than a waste time. I wish I came across this series years ago but I'm glad I've found them regardless. Thank you Mr. Gawesworth, you deserve praise.
Thank you!
So helpful. As a beginner fly fisherman, I am so grateful to have come upon this channel. Thank you.
No, thank you! Glad you found this helpful!
That explains alot about whats going wrong with my casting. None of the other how to casting videos have covered the pointers you've shown.. Thank you!
Simple, addresses every step, gives great example. Thank you from a beginner fly fisherman
This is by far one of the best videos I have seen it is really going to help me to improve my cast
Thanks for the kind words - glad you like it!
Wonderful instruction and demonstration
I learn so much from your videos, keep making them.
Great video. Great tips! I can't wait to get home to use your advice.
Great video! Definitely helped me identify areas of improvement for my casting.
such a clear explanations of faults I completely recognise in my casting. It has inspired me to go out and practice tomorrow! well got a free day so might as well go fishing.
This video is way to underrated! Thank's for the tips!
Thanks - glad you enjoyed this one!
I just started fly fishing in the Bow River in Calgary, AB, and I realized I make all three of the mistakes he mentioned. Very useful!
The best video! Thank you!!!
This is a fantastic video, thank you!
Think you Simon. Been out of the loop for a while with health problems. Those videos are very important for me at this moment. Hope to regain my confidence on the water this year. Think you again for all your teaching skills. Walter
Just discovering your videos, Simon, even though I'm an experienced caster. LOVING them and passing them to friends. The BEST instruction I've found, especially your spey series. Peace.
I read the other comments people made and I agree with them, excellent instructional video. He is a very good teacher, I am learning much and I can't wait to get back out on the water and try the techniques to improve my casting, as well as avoid the bad casts, like the creep and the others. I'll be happy when I am consistently making good casts instinctually, like I do when I'm spin casting. It's going to be so nice to watch that line roll out to perfection and the fly looking like it just landed like a real fly. Thanks to Simon and Rio for these well put together instructional videos.
Really! Really! Good presentation and explanation.
Good info Simon. As a 21 year guide, I always tell my beginners to "pause relax" their arm when they reach the stop position on the back cast. This prevents creep and enforces the turnover timing of the back cast.
Thank you! Just got my first rod today and this info is priceless
Thanks Simon. Good work.
great video. spoken simply. couldn't ask for a better example
Super helpful, thanks! Will try to keep this advice in mind next time I go out
Simon Gawesworth is a genious.
I found an old fly rod in the attic about two years ago. Tried for the past couple of years to learn on my own how to cast, which was becoming quite frustrating, and I was beginning to lose interest in fly fishing. Found this video, and it improved my cast 100 fold, which has allowed me to love fly fishing. Thanks!
That is wonderful to hear, thanks for passing on your story, which we will forward to Simon, as he will love to hear that too. Thanks :)
By far the most helpful casting video I've seen
Good to know - thanks for the comment :)
Great info Simon. Like a swing coach in golf or baseball fly casters also need a coach to see their wrist movement and their loops. Practice practice practice as long as you're practicing the correct things. Thank you again for another great video. I'm sure I will refer to it many times. Hope to see you at the next Fly Show
Well done thanks for the help
I'm so happy I found your TH-cam channel. This makes me much happier to have your line on my reel! God Bless America!
Thanks Hectatus, we're glad you found us
Very informative. Thank you!
wow. This is super helpful and informative! Guilty of all 3! But now I can identify it and more importantly correct it! Thanks @rio!
Thanks for the kind words! Glad you found it helpful!
Great vid, thank you! Very clear and articulated well. ❤
Great info! Appreciate the tips and techniques, well explained and demonstrated!
Thank you, much appreciated!
Great video berry easy to understand
Awesome advice thanks!
Hah! This is so simply explained! I love the troubleshooting approach.
Great tips!! I kept getting tangles in my line and that explains why
Excellent! Thank you.
Back again, a training manual i constantly refer to.
I have been fly fishing for a few years now and the aggressive power stroke is about 60% of my issues and this video has been great at educating me to stop the rod on the back cast ...Thanks
Thanks for letting us know Ronnie - glad to hear the video helped a bit
Best advice!
Waiting a moment to feel the line load the rod before starting my forward cast fixed most of my casting issues.
the best casting video I've seen by far!
Thanks - glad you like it...
Cheers Mate!
Great video
thank you very informative and simple some channels are a bit too cocky teaching new learners this is straight to the point.
Great, thanks for the comments - glad you enjoyed it.
You make it look so easy Simon
Simon says you didn't see the edits and what was cut out from the film, Thomas!
Awesome! Thank you for sharing! All my fly lines are of Rio brand, varied and well designed!
Very cool, thank you :)
The Best Yet
Thanks for the comment, Don - so glad you enjoyed it!
Excelente la Explicación! !!
thanks a lot .. this video got all my mistakes inkluded :-) .... thanks/Tommy, Denmark.
great explanation thanks
I think creep was my biggest problem. Thanks for the info!
A lot of people have that problem! Glad it helped...
Very good video for beginner!
Glad you think so!
Brilliant thank you 😊
No problem!
I do all the mistakes you point out! Very good, I am just about to go out to fish seatrout with bellyboat now
Good luck with that!!!
Good forward loop video
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks
Хорошо объяснил!
Perfect video ! Thanks a lot, greetings from brazil !
My takeaway - I'm doing just about everything wrong. Lately I've been struggling mightily with my cast, and I think I see many components of casting that I need to work on. Thanks.
Glad you liked it - thanks for the comment, and good luck with solving this!!
Excellent, excellent video. would thumbs up 2 times if I could !
Gold
Great demonstration! Wish there was some slow motion of the correct form.
Good call. We'll make a point of adding that for the next casting films!!
Actually I am that bad. Good video thanks for the help.
The creep part had me dying
Simon. I i cast for more distance my leader doe not go in a straight path. And of course windknots. Practice a lot but it is not goiingto good way.
Hi nice video
I have a question.
When I cast forward the fly is tangling down before it goes forward. Why?
We asked Simon and he said it sounds like you have a "tailing loop", which he talked about in this video. If that is the problem, your acceleration is not smooth enough. Hope that helps a little...
I think I use force too much or acceleration on my forward cast. The question is how to avoid that?
@@raymelvinchan try and remember the acronym "SSFF" - Start Slow, Finish Fast for each casting stroke...
What am I doing wrong when I cast and my fly line is leading my fly instead of the fly leading the fly line... Hope that makes sense. It's almost like an exaggerated "S" if you will. Doesn't happen all the time but it definitely happens more than I'd like it to. 👍🎣
Sounds like your forward cast is climbing too high - caused by hitting the forward cast too hard, too early
Pause a little longer before you start the forward cast. Let everything catch up
Bety easyJet learning😊
Luckily all my fishing only requires 20' roll casts.
リオ、バンザイ
Regalenme una cañita k no usen 😃😃🤗🤗
At 4:45 no one's that bad. I know someone whose done it that badly. lol
ok i learned how to cast.... what's next?.... i mean by far i did not catch any fish at all
Check out the Far Bank School of Fly Fishing, for more great info, and keep after it.
Iv got creep 😢😂
Not too difficult of a fix! Try recording yourself so you have a mental picture of what you're doing wrong. Best of luck!
When I watch him cast I just want break my rod in half and go home.
He is exceptional, but a little practice everyday goes a long way!
