We can offer a fly to
a fishin a number of ways...
Depending on whether we are representing a grasshopper or
beetle or a frail spinner falling spent on the water.
Presentig the fly hard
To splash the fly down hard delay the presentation stroke by
dropping the rod tip to point at the water.
Shooting line will only pile line leader and fly in a heap
so we refrain from shooting in this type of
presentation.
Present the fly delicately
To land a fly delicately on the water aim and release line
at a point one meter above where the fly is to land and shoot
line.
If you do not shoot sufficient line the fly line will reach
the end of the cast, stop, and bounce back.
The lesson is for a delicate cast you can't shoot too much
line whereas you can undershoot.
There are other techniques for an advanced caster and these
will be covered briefly as this book is designed around a
learner.
However if you want to refer to these techniques at a
later time they will certainly make you more proficient. To
accomplish long casts it is essential that the speed of the s
fast enough to keep line in the air.
To increase the speed of a cast we can pull the fly line
down with our left hand as we simultaneously lift the line from
the water. To give the fly time to float downstream without
drag, we deliver the fly at about 11 o'clock on the forward
cast , leader and fly land on the water in a heap and a
drag-free float is achieved until and leader reach the end of
their travel.
This tactic is often used to cast across a stream to where a
fish is rising but there is a current between you and the
fish.
A normal cast would cause a belly in the line because the
current is travel faster than the water where the fish is
rising, drag would occur very quickly and no self-respecting
trout is going to accept that!
The side cast, when overhead vegetation prevents a normal
overhead cast, or when a stiff wind is blowing into your face,
the side cast produces the result you need.
A side cast is nothing more than an overhead cast performed
in a horizontal instead of a vertical plane.

many more various ways find this fly as the main tool for
fishermen. Presenting the Fly by Author, Tara Hillton The site
talks about [http://www.advstudies.org/] what are the ways for
the fish to fly effectively.
