My recommendation would be to really practise these videos from beginning to end. There is maybe 3 or more years of training here. The videos that I will be putting up now will be less-structured and can be used as reference. Some will be more advanced, others will be exercises or teaching drills. Finally there will be videos like this one giving small doses of information.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JzzdaA_lIYI?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The only time I fully release line on the shoot is for maximum distance casting. Competition distance for example. At all other times I \u201ccheck\u201d the shoot. This is part of line management.<\/p>\n<p>The use of the Roll Cast to unhook a fly is a practised skill. Do not make a Roll Cast \u201cpick up\u201d ie do not go straight into a backcast. If you are still snagged this can break a rod tip. Instead try Roll Casting again \u2013 try more slack like or a different angle. If the fly has hooked around the branch and hooked the leader you will probably still need to pay it a visit.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_115\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-115\" style=\"width: 851px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-115\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sexyloops.com\/flycast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/hot_torpedos.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"851\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sexyloops.com\/flycast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/hot_torpedos.jpg 851w, https:\/\/www.sexyloops.com\/flycast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/hot_torpedos-300x111.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sexyloops.com\/flycast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/hot_torpedos-768x284.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 851px) 100vw, 851px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-115\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">It&#8217;s an exploration.
