THE ORVIS GUIDE TO BETTER FLY CASTING: A PROBLEM-SOLVING APPROACH TO CASTING FLIES

The Orvis Guide to Better Fly Casting takes a problemsolving approach to making poor fly casters good and good fly casters great. Orvis Pro Staffer Al Kyte explains the most fundamental aspects of the mechanics of fly-rod
casting, the five so-called “rod variables”—tilt, stroke length, bend, angle of rotation, and speed—and then describes how subtle changes in these variables impact the way a fly rod moves. Using these fundamentals, Al
shows how to control the rod, line, leader, and fly to achieve perfect presentation.
