- Steelhead guide and casting instructor Trevor Covich offers some pointers on how to make an effective upstream Perry Poke Skagit cast. He touches on the importance of making a body twist and of simply letting your rod tip drop on the poke. This cast is enhanced with the use of a Commando Head. See more videos at pureskagit.com...
This and the downstream video are probably the two best casting lessons I've ever seen. Really good explanation of the goals of the cast, how to achieve them, and how to make the most of everything. Also appreciate you covering common mistakes. Learned a few things that I can apply to other spey casts as well. Thanks!
Trevor this are the only casts I use and actually work for me and helped me learn Spey casting 90 % of the time with skagit lines including the Opst ones , thank you so much
Hey Trevor, great vid. For those of us who struggle to 'get there', knowing what line and tip you are casting helps explain the process. For us newbies, line and tip description helps a ton with each video.
thanks
Beautiful casting stroke !!
Brilliantly delivered instruction, brilliantly delivered cast. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
New cast for my arsenal. Thanks, I'm still learning... actually always learning.
It's kind of like a single spey with a poke at the end. Love it.
Nice specifics on the upstream poke but some great tips on Skagit casting in general. Well done. 👍 Thankyou!
awesome instruction. VERY well produced video. The upstream perry poke is my favourite cast to use. I always cast farther and with tighter loops when using it.
Excellent video! Very helpful. Thank-you!
Awesome video! Trever I think you would make a great casting instructor. Very detailed explanation of the cast. Good job 👍👌
Beautiful
Great version and variation of this cast. I will try this next time im out on the water. Thanks.
Great insight and well explained, thanks.
awsome video well explained ive wanted to learn the perry poke for a while now this is the best video ive come accross
OPSkagit brilliant keep up the good work I’ve recently bought one of your single hand skagit lines it’s totally awsome
OPSkagit it’s a pleasure
Smooth like Butta as always mister.
I'm sure to practice this one! Great vid.
very nice. I cant wait till spring
Best caster!!!
Just love your movies.struggling in the beginner stage, and trying to get together the loops tight
Been practicing this for about two weeks, I have been double hauling for redfish in Louisiana for the past 10 years. It's been very difficult not allowing my D loop to come out of the water and having my line follow it. I'm slowing trying to brake the habit and keep my D loop with trailing line still in water
Perfect casting..
Thank you!
Hi Trevor, very good vid 👌 it only the extrakt for a better casting technic. And very importand ,......without the boring jabbering. Please, can you explain more cast‘s ? Just like the Snap-T and more. Regards from Germany...... Christian
I like that cast great work
Great tips and presentation. One question: in your OPST recommendation chart for 8wt swich you would recommend 325 grain. Here you are using 450. Is it depending on the rod action? Greetings
It is dependant on rod action, although I don't believe we recommend a 325 for an 8wt Switch.
Great stuff. You mentioned not wearing your rain jacket. I am physically incapable of fishing with any type of jacket apart from a waistcoat! They're just far too restricting. Perhaps OPST could do a 'how to fish in a wading jacket tutorial'! I'd rather throw a good line and get wet!
You should try fishing in the Pacific Northwest.
Does that mean it's wet or dry?! I live in North East England which means it rains pretty much all the time! We don't get great weather over here! I often come back from the river like a drowned rat! As long as I'm fishing, I'm happy!
@@salmonninja7223 It means wet, but also cold, really damn cold
What rig are you running. Length rod and weight please
Love it👌🏻🎣
Nice but why not just snap C the cast?
Some places there is no room due to overhanging trees. I can think of a few!
@@OPSkagit wel with a. Wry short head, you have options for sure.
Way too much disturbance of the water
Not really, we catch fish regardless. Thanks for watching!
Dramatic
RIO stomps on the OPST heads.. sorry.. not sorry... 😂
Disagree Taben:) Also not sorry🤣
@@OPSkagit yours is cheaper and it fits my style of fishing better 😏
This is more like my basic snap t cast haha. I was hoping to see a way up stream cast. Having fished the Rogue river for the past 8 years. 70% of my fish seem to be caught on a straight across cast or up river cast. I hook some on a down river cast or 45* cast if you will. But it does not produce fish like the across river or up river cast does. Also flies get down deeper when the cast is up river more. Basic physics. Fact is think out of the box for steelhead and numbers will follow.
