Very informative video. I have always used my right hand to apply force, and hence always struggled with the casting distance. Now, I will use this technique to improve my casting distance. But there is a little bit of confusion. The fishing rod is said to be an example of a third-class lever to which effort or force is applied in the middle. So, if it is a class three lever, the force must come form the right hand. Please elaborate.

How far is this guy casting?

[@nannut41]

Very simple explanation easy to follow,thanks a lot.

[@gmonkey808]

does lots of pressure build on casting finger from the line up into before the release? And does pressure build on hook and bait at the end of the line. I find that the pressure on end of line will rip the hook through a pva bag? Any advice?

You are contradicting yourself now Terry, in your Angling Direct video, you say the right hand is used to punch the rod, punch pull👍

[@hangha6348]

What brand is the fishing rod, boss?

[@honestloz]

Funny, 🤔 I've actually just watched a video you did with A.D.T.V where you say exactly the opposite!!! that you do want your right arm slightly bent behind your head and IT IS a punch action and you pull through with your left arm into the middle of your body!!!! To be fair that video was only a few years ago so I guess we all can improve our technics, even the the great Terry. I just thought I would mention it so people don't make these mistakes!!!! 😱

I always worry if I put too much in I'll snap my rods or crack off, I'm sure I could do 200 yards if that didn't bother me

[@haroonrashid7229]

The mistake I had been making for so many years has been rightly pointed out here in this video. It is the pull not push that makes a long cast.
