In this instalment of Casting with Ed, we step into an important conversation regarding the sweep of the cast; no matter what style Skagit cast you use, this will always apply. A Skagit cast relies more on proper tempo than proper timing, and here Ed talks about maintaining proper tempo during the sweep and turn-over, relying in the concept of an instant application of power. This concept allows the rod to not only begin loading immediately during the sweep, but remain nice and bent all the way through into you forward stroke. Those of you struggling with blown anchors, listen up! This one here is gold from The Master! - Спорт
Best instruction that I have ever seen in Skagit casting!! Very much appreciated. You have greatly advanced my casting skills. Thank you
We're glad to help! Stay tuned for more casting instruction from Ed coming soon!
I think that was the best explanation I've ever heard on how to skagit cast a short line. I'm sold. OPST, take my money!
good explanation about the difference between linear casting stroke v continuous
Thanks Tim!
Question about the 180 principal after the continuous motion?🤔
How do you know your D loop it’s exactly opposite to the casting target before the forward cast ?
That continuous motion concept is clear in my mind, not so much how to end up with a 180 principal after increasing the rod tip speed to do the alignment to the target after the Dloop is form. All ways great to see you guys sharing your tips. Thank you so much for the time to do a response.

I find that if I have set my anchor correctly and have performed an out-and-around motion well enough, if my reel and bottom grip are pointed at my target, so to is the D-Loop.
Can I kindly ask Ed what rod he is using... THANK YOU!
Would like to see a video .if possible on how far you pull the shooting head back to the tip of the rod before casting...IE do you pull it to the tip of the shooting head or do you leave about a foot of running line out...been working on it but just haven't found the right spot yet...Thanks
Hello Edward, so we do leave a bit of running line outside the rod tip, although the amount is variable and is sorta based on personal preference. We'll also change the amount of our runner that is hanging outside our rod tip situationally......say if we're standing on a rock, or a dock, we'll increase the amount of running line hanging out the rod tip. Vise versa, if we're chest deep in the river we may pull most of the running line into the rod tip ( and even a little bit of the head sometimes when we're really deep). In general we tell folks to start with about 6 inches, and adjust from there.
@@opstshare7295 Thanks. Back to the drawing board...
Could see the “ turn over motion” if your right shoulder wasn’t in the way. Or if the camera was shooting from another angle. Thanks for sharing. M
You're Welcome!
