Casting in Heavy Wind - Fly Casting

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Stay tuned for a lot more from our time down in FL - thanks for watching friends!

[@sugriv3405]

Ohh.. so wt will b the delivery cost sir?
Any idea sbt approx amt?
Wt will be the means of payment?

[@stephenrosenfeld833]

Thank you for giving me permission to accept reality and stay home when it's too windy. I can now do that guilt-free!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

There does come a time when fly casting just won't work! Hopefully not often, but it does happen.

[@nerdskiii]

without a doubt - this is best Fly channel on youtube! thankyou so much for all your videos - you have changed my life 😆

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Wow! Thanks for the kind and inspiring words! We'll keep doing as long as folks keep supporting our shop!!!! Stay tuned.

[@charlieboutin3341]

Great tips! I love fishing in the wind..up to an extent 😂 The fish love a foam hopper in choppy water. Caught a 6lb bass and 5 smaller ones, a month ago on 3wt fishing for bluegill (and around 30 of them) in steady 15-20 mph wind with gusts to 30, keeping cast low as you demonstrated. I also practice, practice and practice some more whenever it gets windy, that helps immensely! Have a great Memorial weekend MRO staff! God bless those who gave all for our great country. 🇺🇸

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for being here and Happy Memorial Day to all as well.

[@derikdrinkle2084]

Wish I could cast like that even when the winds not blowing. Great casts. Thanks for the tips.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Keep watching and keep practicing. You can!!!!!!

[@DerekPetersonLives]

Absolutely genius method of demonstration and explanation!
Straight to the point to boot, thank you yet again!!
I finally found something my local fly shop can't supply for the rest of the season, going straight to you now ;)
Glad I can help fund great vids like this, even if it's just a small contribution

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching. We appreciate the support.

[@jaykaneshige6251]

Brian... Great loop ideas to have the front and back winds to work for you! You just made my life easier! Thanks!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching and happy to help!

[@phardiman84]

I can watch these fly casting videos every day. Keep'em coming!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching. As long as folks keep supporting the shop, we'll keep making them.

[@bradfordvillebassin7009]

Between the how to get started in fly fishing and this video, I've learned enough to make my brain ache but I'm more excited now to get out and toss flies! Thanks for the boost of confidence Brian!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching. Take a few Advil and then come back for more.

[@samlamerson8372]

This is great. I often fish for snook from the beach in S. Florida and sometimes the wind gets the best of me. Very helpful.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching and please stay tuned.

[@leemowers9395]

Thanks Brian for the lesson.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Appreciate you being here.

[@johnnylightning1491]

Thanks for the casting lesson Brian, it'll come in handy one of these days I'm sure. Keep the good stuff coming.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching and please stay tuned.

[@Charsept]

I got a couple 8 wts for my bi-yearly Florida trips. The wind has been a big determining factor. This was definitely a video I needed.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Appreciate you watching and happy to help. Stay tuned.

[@MRR_Shadowolf]

great video and very informational!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

[@flyingunicycle]

Very nice tips Brian! Thank you for sharing! These videos have been very helpful for a newbie like me!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks so much for being here. Happy to help.

[@aasocks]

After watching all your videos and prepping myself, I went fly fishing. It was early May a year ago in north central PA. One thing I didn’t account for or know how to handle, WIND..... I couldn’t figure out how to get the fly through the air. Thanks for another awesome video Brian.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching. Happy to help.

[@archer41eh]

Great tip! Thank you. That's an awesome colour rod!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for being here.

[@treynorth7269]

thanks, this will really help. The wind is always blowing here in West Texas & Eastern New Mexico.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching!

[@MrTCAllen77]

Great info. Now we know to be friends with the wind and knowing is half the battle.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Most of the time, you can use the wind to your advantage. Thanks for watching.

[@moritzherrmann3994]

Excellent! Thanks for the good advice

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching.

[@charlesmurray1220]

"Don't worry Travis, I won't get ya" says the guy who took his own hat off in that recent quick plooper. All in good fun friend. All in good fun.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

He would never do that to a friend though. Thanks for watching.

[@TheElusiveMandog]

Looks like someones finger slipped when they went to hit the like button😂 Much love you guys love the videos and i just got the reddington crosswater waders i ordered from you guys and am headed up to the sierras tomorrow. Gonna slay em!!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Gotta have haters. They actually help! Thanks for watching and please stay tuned.

[@charlesmurray1220]

Do you sleep with that thing too. LOL! Love the humor.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

Thanks so much!

[@richardwoolley7446]

Thanks for that , very useful

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for being here.

[@vaclavurban3063]

I wish I knew that before going casting yesterday in very windy conditions. All i tried was roll cast but id did not worked 😀 Anyway. Many thanks for tips. I started flyfish this year and i still have a lot to teach. 👍

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching and happy to help.

[@jeffmiller3411]

Great video

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks so much for watching.

[@jonathanlahdenpera7929]

Hi Brian I love your videos and want to come up from Florida and fish the mad river

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching! Come on up!

[@ilcamarin5259]

Thank you!!!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

[@Worthrhetime]

Cool 😎 thx

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching.

[@1justfishin]

I like this . Can you show us walking the flats with the wind coming from the right. Sight fishing . I fish in Aruba with minimum 16 mph winds. Trying to target fish while wading with wind pushing you. I don’t have that extra elevated position.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Pretty sure he covered this here? Wind from the right, put the rod tip and loop over your left shoulder.

[@1justfishin]

I got it.

[@mattfleming86]

Man that would be a great carp boat. :-D

[@Madriveroutfitters]

It IS a great carp boat. Thanks for being here.

[@Madarch78]

Would you mind telling me what the handle is in that reel? Recently purchased a ccf-x2 and would like a biggee handle.

[@aquamenseafood7734]

Is that an echo boost blue rod? What weight and how do you like it Brian?

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Pretty sure it was a TFO Axiom II X rod and not an Echo. You'd have to confirm though with Brian. He can be reached at the shop via e-mail or phone.

170 likes 0 dislikes very impressive!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Give them time. They'll show up. They always do!!! Thanks for watching.

[@TheSavagederek]

Worth remembering. Fish go where the food is. Wind blows insects onto the water, so it makes sense to fish into the wind.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

👍🥷🏾

[@stickhillfarm]

I found that if you can make 1 out of 10 casts in swirly 30 mph winds on the salt, you are a hero caster on 15 mph days.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Probably true! Thanks for watching.

[@sugriv3405]

Sir can i order it to India??

[@Madriveroutfitters]

You certainly can.

[@BrookieCooki84]

The two dislikes are from fish that got caught in the wind when they thought they were safe.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Very well could be. Thanks for watching.

[@zman8340]

Most important thing he said .... pull into the wind .

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Pull the cast into the wind.....don't push it. Thanks for watching.

[@zman8340]

@@Madriveroutfitters Yeah what I said . Tight lines .

[@AlexWood922]

Great stuff Brian. Do you sell those reel handles?

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching. Here you go: www.madriveroutfitters.com/p-16362-knuckleheads.aspx

[@elliothungate9678]

Why do you pull out so much line? Personal preference?

[@Madriveroutfitters]

No, depends on how much line you are looking to shoot. Directly proportionate to the length of cast needed.

[@BeetleBuns]

"don't worry Travis, I'm not gonna getcha" if I had a dollar for every time I broke a promise like that when casting...

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Probably the same for him?

[@bigron8346]

No spinning rods!!
Time to tie!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Personal choice there for sure. We always have spinning rods on the boat. Always.

[@mrpoopypants9586]

Great tips. Off to put it into practise on a fly course with my son. Thanks from the Blue Mts, Australia. Cheers PP

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks for watching and best of luck.
