All casting distances will be 80 ft and shooting line to 100ft. Overhead Cast (must be performed over water) Demonstrate 3-4 false casts at 70 ft, with narrow loops forward and back. Demonstrate 3-4 false casts at 70 ft, with an open loop forward and back. Explain and demonstrate the difference in casting open loop and tight loops. Demonstrate 3-4 false casts at 70 ft, off-shoulder/or opposite hand. Demonstrate a tailing loop on command. Explain how a tailing loop is formed. Demonstrate a change of direction cast (30 degrees or greater). Explain and demonstrate shooting line. Demonstrate a cast of over 100 ft (shooting line allowed). Roll Cast (may be preformed from left or right bank) Demonstrate a 70 ft dead line roll cast. Demonstrate a 70 ft dead line roll cast over off-shoulder/or opposite hand. The fly must not anchor behind the caster at the point of making the final forward delivery and the forward cast must unroll above the water. To be performed from left or right bank Explain and demonstrate shooting line SWITCH CAST Explain and demonstrate poor timing on the forward cast illustrating too much anchor. Explain and demonstrate the premature loss of the anchor during the cast Explain and demonstrate a slack anchor point with the line piled anchor. Explain and demonstrate line control mends; mending upriver anddownriver
Explain and demonstrate the relationship between length of line carried and casting stroke length. Explain and demonstrate the fly anchoring incorrectly, on the downstream side of the caster. Explain and demonstrate an anchor point that is too far upstream of the caster. DOUBLE SPEY Explain and demonstrate what happens when the anchor point is set too far downstream of the caster, well below the path of the forward cast. Explain and demonstrate the fly anchoring incorrectly, on the upstream side of the caster. Explain and demonstrate a slack anchor point with a bloody L. Explain and demonstrate the difference when casting with very little backspace (6 ft) behind the caster, and a lot of backspace behind(40 ft). SNAKE ROLL Explain and demonstrate a poorly timed forward cast. SNAP T Explain and demonstrate a poor snap so that the fly anchors too far downstream side of the caster. Explain and demonstrate a poor snap so that the fly anchors too far upstream of the caster. Lower hand kicks out, causing rod tip to drop on backcast, resulting in too much line anchored to water. (The trunk) Correct "hooking", a forward casting motion is made across body resulting in wide, horizontally oriented forward loop. Correct creep in forward cast. Correct "rolling the shoulder". The rod on the forward cast "rolls" forward by the upper body, shoulders and/or arms, causing a wide loop that unrolls along the water.
