- In this video, RIO brand manager Simon Gawesworth explains what to look for in a good forward cast, and shows the three commonest casting mistakes people tend to make on their forward cast. The film is an excellent instructional tool for improving the forward cast and explains how to easily recognize what is going wrong by watching the loop on the forward cast.

Great video! Should watch this several times before and during the fishing day to remind myself until it get better as I tend to have these wind knots a bit too often
Thank you I gleaned much from that CONCISE explanation! I've read whole libraries on the subject you have simplified things sooo nicely..
Simon does a great job of discussing all the simple things that can make anyone's cast better. Appreciate the feedback!
Skillfully described and executed. Right to the point. Thank you. I'm guilty of all those. I'm self-taught on the fly rod. Don't understand any of the subtleties or nuances needed with flies, rods, Rod weights, Etc. I'll be watching your videos and implementing them. Many fish I catch out of luck. I keep it simple dry fly fishing at dusk when they're feeding on flies I'm trying to present something they will grab. Sometimes it works. Usually I miss the strike or they are kind enough to hook themselves. I'm a marksman with an ultra-light spinning rod and my barbless lures of choice. I walk up a stream and know there's a fish behind a rock, under an overhang, or across the stream in a deep cut out, target shoot it, nail it, Let It Go. I like being able to drop a fly in there also with a fly rod and techniques. Many times that's all they want is the fly
Thanks for the detailed and honest feedback. Good luck this season!
Excellent instructions !
This was so eloquent, thank you
Phenomenal instruction!! Thank you.
Fantastic video, concise and informative. Thank you. 🎣
Excellent and insightful, Simon! Many thanks. Always enjoy your videos. 👍
Simon
Thanks for your very clear vedio of correct fly casting!
Please make an extensive detailed veido about making an "ultra tight pointed loop ". Clearly developing all the critical elements of this cast.
I would be very greatful!
Many thanks
just jim
I like the idea of an orange line to practice ...easier to see the loop.... Looked at RIO website cannot see one listed.... is this a special line for Simon for demostration purposes..
Thanks Simon you are a big help.😊
Nice neck bandanna. Completes that FF look...
Thanks for the great tips!
that explains my wind knot problem T_T TYSM!
Super helpful, thank you.
Still on my list to do! nice vid!
hope you give it a try, not that difficult to learn the basics and have fun!
Honestly thought I was clicking on a Hank Patterson video with his infamous client Reese. This was much more useful
Top quality video A++
Excellent
Great explanation of poor casting techniques and, more importantly, how to fix them.
Nice job.
This guy knows what’s up👆🏼 I was immediately able to identify with a few of my faults. What can I say? I’m an aggressive caster. Lol 🤷🏼♂️
Steely Dan me also I see a fish get over excited and mess it all up lol
Well that settles it. I’m doing everything exactly the wrong way.
Don't worry, you will get better. I was the same way with golf, could not stop slicing the ball into the trees! But practice and mentoring really help (and of course watching our videos!). Good luck learning and improving, have a great season!
Practice makes perfect. Took me awhile too get a hang of it. I found out consistency plays a big role on getting a smooth perfect cast. It's not how much power you apply to the rod. Thanks for the informative vedio.
It's a long learning curve. Now I have more good casts than bad ones .
I'm not sure if I can mention name of a specific fly line but a good line will make it easier ,and make you look good.
I found "my" line for smallstream casting and everything fell into place, trying the instructions last weekend It got even better 👍
Now I look like I know what I'm doing 😉😁
You did more on bad casts than on a demonstration on good cast.
Well after that video i see what im doing wrong. Im to aggressiv
Many of us (especially men) are too aggressive with our casts, very common. Smooth and technically correct, that all the physics that are needed to get a great forward cast. Simon explains it so well. Thanks for the feedback!
Why is it on the final stroke of the best cast you would have ever made, your fly finds a branch of a tree?
so painfully true for us all!
For pike fly fishing big loops are better, still loved the vid!
Why?
He might be referring to heavy flies...When you cast heavily weighted flies, you do want to slow down and open your loop, otherwise your timing will be all messed up and you’ll most likely hit your rod or create wind knots.
Douglas Johnson Bigger fly
When your casting large or heavy flies it is best to open your loop in order to avoid hitting your rod with the fly which could cause damage. But for most casting, you want a tight loop like simon discusses. Hope this helps explain why
The New Fly Fisher exactly
Wind knots. Bleh.
