Trust me! Fly catsing isnt like coarse casting!

step 1. There is NO bale arm on the reel. Line must be taken off by hand.
step 2. With about 20 m of line out, flick the rod beack to 1 o clock.
step 3. Front cats to 10 o clock.
step 4. If u want to bring the line down, pause at 10 o clock, then bring down to 9 o clock.

WARNING: Hooks can and will impale.

I was catsing lats week; I got the hook stuck in meh ear. (Luckliy, i was weraing some old glasses at the time to protect myself. they worked, and stopped my eyes from getting severed.)

Dont worry, hookings are rare, and if using barbless hooks easy to get out.

We got loads new flys today!!

There is no better feeling, than trout pulling ur line! Thats the feeling I felt today, coz i caught one on a GBHE!! dad caught 2.

Playing a fish is HARD!!

Always remember 3 things:

1. ALWAYS ABOVE ALL kepp rod tip high.

2. When thefish pulls REALY REALLY hard, let some line out. Otherwise, the line snaps.

3. Whenever trout is tired, pull more line in.

I almost caught another, but that got away...

P.S. Trout leap out of water, and fight MORE than carp, so get ready for a fight.

Of Course, Coarse fishing is easier than Fly Fishing, but I prefer fiddling around with the fly!

Oh, dont catch big fish in the UK without unhoking mats. For fly fishing, unhook trout in the water...But coarse fish, u need an unhooking mat. The UK say its illeagle to not have mat.
