The 6th picture down that Dave took is great! It shows the the right and wrong. The caster in the front of the picture ahs control of his line...stright as an arrow. The caster in the back ground has a large curved overhead loop and aldo a major loss of line speed from the tailing loop in the rear. Reason that is happing to him is, he's comming forward with his rod before his line was tight or compleating comming to the end of its flight. As I say, he is swatting flys with his rod...not waveing a flag..
sorry for the ramble... great picture Dave

Actually that is my "focusing intently on what is being said and done" look.

I only look that way when I'm thinking or learning about fishing.

Great pictures. All smiles on all the faces that were there. Would of loved to of attended but the 3 1/2 hour trip each way and having to be somewhere early the next day wouldn't do it.

Will definately try to mark it on calendar early to make it next year.

Interesting flounder that Steve tied. I watched him put one together at Somerset. Looks so real.

Looks like a first class event. Great way to spend a winter day.
