As Matt fires his presentation cast, line is sliding through the fingers of his left hand helping to control the distance of his cast. Just as the fly lands, Matt clamps down on the fly line ensuring a tight presentation. Ultimately the result is a cast that will roll out straight, in front of the target, with no slack in the system. This is an essential tactic for sight fishing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58d82b6bd2b857f33fbb40e0/1587306245355-2XJXXUKMBF5OJAC08PJ4/1+of+3.jpg Journal - 5 Tips to Hone Your Craft https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58d82b6bd2b857f33fbb40e0/1587306261986-BRFC9P6A685B5LW8C1O4/2+of+3.jpg Journal - 5 Tips to Hone Your Craft https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58d82b6bd2b857f33fbb40e0/1587306280545-QBY04IK9F5JC3QVLNQWQ/3+of+3.jpg Journal - 5 Tips to Hone Your Craft https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58d82b6bd2b857f33fbb40e0/1587306301168-6FTD260GX4AU53IPE4TE/20170911-DSC_9029.jpg Journal - 5 Tips to Hone Your Craft https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58d82b6bd2b857f33fbb40e0/1587412457227-UXYVBLH37UFK2BQ6XXVT/IMG_0293_fly_fishing_travel.jpg Journal - 5 Tips to Hone Your Craft The author extends his rod hand comfortably towards his target setting himself up to execute a 5 or 6 foot long strip.

We are fishing an intermediate line so that our fly will hover just beneath the surface and sink at a rate of only 1” to 2” per second. We are casting tight to the rocks then stripping in about 30’ of line through the swirling shallow water. We aren’t wasting time stripping the fly all the way to the boat because we are purposefully overlooking the deeper water further from the rocks. There may be stripers in that deeper water but they aren’t our target right now. If we were to focus on the deeper water we would be switching to a heavier sinking line to best present to those fish. Perhaps we’ll see signs that entice us to change strategies which is why it’s always important to keep your eyes open, watch for follows, and be flexible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58d82b6bd2b857f33fbb40e0/1587410885111-NPFF0U3Q1X52D2FM1XOL/IMG_0238_fly_fishing_travel.JPG Journal - 5 Tips to Hone Your Craft Moments after 30 feet of line was released behind the author on the back cast, Kyle pinches the line with his left hand and prepares to power forward and deliver the fly to the target. This was a windy day and releasing line on the back cast was essential to minimize false casts.

A feeding permit on the flat, zero wind, and a guide that has worked his ass off to get you in the perfect position to make a 50 foot upcurrent shot. What’s your first step? For me it’s a deep breath. I try to let go of the outcome. Confidence is your best friend in this situation. Deliver the fly with full belief that today is your day. If you have a sliver of doubt, let that go on your next exhale. It’s okay if the permit gives you the middle finger or the striped bass spooks; you’ve just logged important observations and notched another failure under your belt. The next time you step up to the plate you’ll be that much closer to success. In this case, the caster is David Mangum, tarpon guide and outfitter. Channel your inner Mangum and act like you’ve been here before! Failure goes hand in hand with success.

T&T's Joe Goodspeed sets the hook on a well earned flats striper. We had overcast skies and challenging sighting conditions but we stuck to the plan and stayed patient. This fish put off a dinner plate sized footprint of nervous water which alerted us to the fish's position. Joe trusted the instruction blindly and made the cast perfectly... the fish ate and it was game on. Had Joe hesitated or questioned the fish's position, the opportunity would have dissolved before we ever got a fly in the water.
