Im a 50+ year old fly fisherman with a casting shoulder that was destroyed in an accident. 2 handed rods relieve 90% of all the grunt work, false casting, and body movment; It is an epiphany whhen you use a beulah surf rod, the proper line, and learn that push pull technique. You can keep both your elbows tucked in and still pound out huge long casts..................ALL DAY. 2 handers in the surf is totally like "why didn't I ever think of this before" moment and you'll laugh when you see guys flailing their arms around for 3 false casts that wind up hitting "maybe" 70 ft; unless youre witnessing a pro; which most of us arent. good luck. give it a shot.
Great video & explanation Dave. I’ve been giving this style some serious consideration. Thx.
I usually explain the ease and control of a two hand rod compared, is like the difference between digging holes with a trowel and a spade.

Wow. I need to buy one of these. I always fish the jetties and surf sometimes. How far that dude casted that blew my mind Haha

You ever you pike flys in the surf, pike flys have some similar patterns to ones used for red fish.
Do you have a video on how to cast a Spey rod?
Have you used it for pompano fishing and what rig would you recommend. I use your fort peirce store n the winter
What sink tip and intermediate lines would you recommend for the 13.5’ 8wt for overhead surf casting (for stripers)?
What was the reel he had in the video?
