  • Was honored to sit in on a private fly casting lesson by the legendary Lefty Kreh...who is without a doubt "the best known fly angler of our time. He is considered the father of modern fly fishing, and his best-selling books are considered by many to be fly fishing bibles. His countless magazine articles and approachable demeanor have brought thousands of new devotees to the quiet sport of fly fishing".

    Just started fly fishing last week and it didn’t take long to realize this man was a walking treasure. Truly very few people to walk the earth like this man. One of a kind, and a selfless wealth of knowledge.

    Well I am his grandson and I am still learning, but what I do know is I am glad this video, and many more are preserved for people to learn this art. people seem to be losing touch with nature in general, at an alarming rate, So I hope this helps to get us closer to that love of the natural world around us, because at the end of the day, that's what he is really about.

    Wow just seeing this out of the box ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.

    Keeping the "elbow on the shelf" the secret to great fly casting. Thanks Lefty!

    *Overall **enjoyable.fishing** recommend I feel the Shadowfire 360 offers excellent value for those who are new to tenkara and don't want to break the bank on their first rod purchase.*

    Best advice is to keep the elbow on a straight plane, as he said imagine your elbow is on a shelf or a plank, don't lift the elbow up or down..One thing keep the wrist locked APART from the very end when you release at the target, aim at target with the back of thumb..Practice casting with elbow on a shelf or board it will make everything fall into place and make it simpler than trying to explain the dynamics..

      the secret is that his style works for him only. that's why there are so many "gurus" and not many successful followers. fly fishing is a huge money making industry and nobody wants to run out of customers. they don't want you to actually cast well. they want you to believe you can improve your casting by attending those classes, buying new rods/reels/lines. what he says is not what he does. he says "shelf" and watch him casting when he talks about something else. bs
