Casting Tips - Fiberglass Rod Casting Basics

Tim Rajeff gives a basic rundown of what makes casting a fiberglass fly rod different from more common graphite rods.

Which fly line is best for that rod Tim?

Tim, thanks very much. I recently purchased a vintage Wright McGill glass rod. I've paired it with your Echo Bravo LT and it's become my go to combo. Love your product and appreciate your videos.

Thank you, is it possible to cast streamers with fiberglass rods, for example if the rod is # 5 weight?
And to make roll cast and spey cast?

Tim I like your fly rods very much. I am old school... my very first fly rod was an 9x8wt with level line. That was 1973. Things have really changed since then. I own way to many fly rods, so my Wife tells me. But I will never give up my glass rods! At 74 yrs old I'm a little slower than I used to be. So the glass is my favorite. Think you for your time and wonderful rods. Best regards. Walter from Ohio. 👍👏

Another drill is to reduce your forward power stroke in lesser & lesser efforts, to find the stall point.
