Main > Hobbies > Fishing > Fly-fishing > Technique General tips: Don't lob overhead directly. The aim is to create energy through momentum, swinging the rod back and forward, until you finally let the weighted line fly away through the air to land gently and accurately on the desired spot. Take a squash stance, standing side-on to where you want the fly to land. Prepare the line by creating momentum, then achieve momentum, then work towards the location over the entire period of the line settling into place. The flexibility of the rod maintains the momentum of the line: the more flexible, the more even the energy quantity over the rod's reversal of direction.   Panoculus (40)
