Three Secrets to Advanced Spey Casting
Переглядів 1 тис.Місяць тому
The lesson I’m learning in all Spey casting is that less is more. Also practice is the key. I’m casting a 67’ Gaelforce Equalizer Altitude Spey line in a 15’ Carron Double handed Spey Rod. The rod had plenty of power and a little bit of soul. A tad less power brings out a little more distance for me.

CND Gravity Spey Speyorama Review
I have the Tributary 475 for my 7 wt. Casts like butter.
One of the key elements of the single spey cast is the lift. In fact, the lift is probably the single most important part of any single spey cast and a fundamental element of the lift is the speed with which it is executed. The slower the lift the better and further the cast. Watch competition casters, they lift so slowly that time seems to stop.
Good stuff. Really needed to see it. I know my lift is lacking. To the point I put more focus on what comes after. Now for the past 3 weeks it's what comes after that is breaking down and now I'm full circle back to the lift. I didn't know what to in order to learn it's effect and importance. So, I was somewhat satisfied with where I was. It was progress in my mind considering how it was in the beginning. Should have got a lesson in the beginning, or by now. Anyways, the shotgun lift. Thanks for the demo. I'll copy it. When the bottom hand starts to push, is the upper arm locked? And this is where the upper wrist allows the rod rotation as if throwing a pie in someone's face?
Single spey is a bit difficult,most time I don't get the same beautiful unrolling and distance like snap T. I did it well in single hander,but still need to spend some time on my heavier trout spey 2 handers .I use my new sage trout spey Hd 2wt, cast a 240 spey lite Scandi ,close to 70ft, far from perfect.
I like Simons way. Up the mountain, down the mountain, up to key and cast. Like you said, lots of ways
Hey Tim! Have you fished with this rod? Do you think it would hold up in a fight with heavy Atlantic Salmon?
It looks a bit heavy for fly fishing but if you like it have fun then,lol
you make some of the best 2 hand vids on utube. I make sure that the vet's that I instruct in the craft, have and use your youtube address; thank you. one request: allot of us vets are hearing impaired, could you perhaps use a better mic? it would help much. keep up the good work; thanks again.
I lost my rio 250 grain skagit and 95 grain sink tip around a rock, I was loving the setup and thought I was done. I how ever had a spare 275 grain opst skagit and 168 grain T14 it handled it with a we bit of a slow down in casting action, This blew me away, I fished a whole week on the Tongariro river catching many fish up to the 5 lb range. Thanks for the heads up on a great we rod. Appreciate your work
Great story! Thanks for sharing! Way to adjust and come back clutch to hook up!
Is that the loomis Asquith? How do you like it?
Love it! Very interesting rod! Powerful and lightweight! Lacks the feedback I love from the Gaelforce but throws very consistent loops!
I think the lift give a beginning tension to the line,once the leader get straight and the fly almost out of the water,change the angle of lift and the sweep could be started .And take a little upward angle with the lift.
Excellent response! Thanks
Going from lift into sweep its easy to accelerate(too much), and once you do you cant stop. Trying to keep calm in the transition phase makes you in control. Thats an anxiety cast, one needs to keep calm during transition...
Excellent points!
Got a 510. Love it
Great informative video but I do worry about your dental bills😂
🤣
Tim towards the end of that session I noticed your reel was hanging down. I find that having the reel pointing in the direction of whatever move you are making to be very helpful. I orientate my feet first and then my reel. There was a group of casts in the middle there where your reel was pointing forwards and the line was snapping up onto the spool when the cast went out. They were nice!!!
Thanks Peter! That’s a great tip! I’ll have start paying more attention to that! Appreciate it very much!
Some mighty fine loops there Tim.
Thanks Peter!
Travis rocks!
It’s my goal this year to start casting more with my left hand.
Same here!
You are like me, big dollars go toward rod and line😂
Would be interesting to test this rod back to back with #7 12'7" Nam Original I've had for few years now. Used to do similar thing with 350gr Vision Hybrid and 140gr tips, Vision calls "scandi" way of building their Hybrid line for 7wt. But there's long tradition of abusing skagit heads for scandi line body in Finland at least. Anyways, with 12'7" Nam intentionally went after lighter feel 7wt to be used for sea trout run rather than salmon so it doesn't exactly shine when used with heavy line and pushed hard. So in search for a feel the rod was intended for I got 440gr Scandi Launch from Rio just this week and finally feel I found a perfect line for the rod. I was bit blown away how it loads the rod with very shallow D-loop yet lets the rod recover fast and feel feather light and effortless to cast. Now I'm thinking if InTouch Scandi 3D is close enough or if Rio will eventually update the sinking scandi heads to Elite series.. I just need a F/H/I for some places. One Ren rod I've been looking at for a while is #6 11'6" Switch for more active fishing methods, upstream casts, stripping streamers etc. Basically I want rod that's as close to 8wt 9'6" but is a doublehander to save my wrist. Somehow singlehand spey casting with 300gr shooting head is much harder on wrist than overhead casting a 10wt overlined two sizes for pike. Btw can't be repeated often enough about Nam is if you break the rod, they only need a photo of the damaged section, rod label and receipt and they'll ship you replacement section anywhere in the world. No registration BS, you can buy used Nam and as long as you get copy of the receipt with it you're covered. Of course there's a fee but if I'm on a trip I can possibly get the rod back in use in just few days. Not that I break rods a lot but accidents happen.
hello, que caña aventik spey me recomientas pra rio grande tierra del fuego , pesca de sea trout gigantes
13’7 “ 9/10 is a very good rod!
Have you tried the Rio Elite Scandi Launch head? 36 ft. Like to know how you did. Thanks. On the Rogue.
Have not tried that one yet. The Gaeforce Equalizer shooting head, it’s about 38 feet is my favorite line in that category… A tad on the long side for a Scandi head but so fun to cast and fish!
Thanks for sharing this!! 💪👍
My pleasure!
Am I seeing you pause on the backcast?
Maybe a tad😁
Great vid Tim. Hope to run into you again on the Clearwater this year.
WOW !! I love this video ! The very slow video shows the movements of the rod tip !! Thank you
Glad you liked it!
I dug my 150grain scout out days ago,attached to a 5wt RIO replacent tip which is 55grains 10ft ,cast very nice,farther than 60ft easily and wholy get straight,but I can't observe the loop shape because of the black tip color,I concern that if the tip is too heavy or too light ,or just I do a low-stop posotion cast. Do you have any good ways to estimate it?
Not always easy to tell in real time. If it flies straight, turns over and lands in a straight line your golden! Keep everything smooth always!
@@LineSpeedJediTimRawlins I took a slow-mo video today. Maybe the replacement tip is a little bit light for the head and the fly is a little bit light for the tip,so much power go through and torque the end of line,loop shape always tight at first,and the fly goes high,cause the loop shape seem to be wide or open.
Travis is the best!!
Good stuff, thanks
Also worth plugging his Instagram subscription! Well worth it for content and access to him for questions and so on. I'll be fishing with him in the fall, cannot wait.
what instagram account?

Tim what was the key thing you learned from Travis?
Awesome! Travis is one descent dude, your a lucky man to have had him show you casting pointers.
You see how relaxed he is and at the end he lifts up and powers it you can apply that to two handed surf fly fishing that’s the magic around the 1 min mark in the video
Is there any side arm spey cast? I'm trying to get under low hanging brush.
Absolutely!
Was it like Obi Wan and Luke Skywalker Tim?😂
🤣❤️
All i care about is catching Steelhead. im not casting to fish a football feild away. i seek accuracy & smooth effeciancy not distance. Im a Spey fisherman not a Spey caster. I think like a bow hunter not a magum rife hunter. If i cant reach the seam far away ill cross the river or get in my kayak.
Wtf is that comment 🤣🤣🤣
@@jess0493 that's like saying I only practice on fish
If all one cares about is catching fish and not casting then it is odd to spend time watching these videos all about casting. But you do you, buddy!
@@SamRocha exactly
What would you recommend for a decent pair of breathable waders?
that shooting head looks really heavy
Great info Tim, thanks. I’ve gone through two pair of Irish setter boots. I liked them but they are pricey, this looks like a good alternative for me.
i have found the cheaper the boot of any kind the softer the sole, so soft that i can feel every pebble and sharp rock stabbing the bottom of my feet.
Thanks for sharing
I really need to study Roberts videos on this exercise and use yours for supplemental. Could you explain "break the rod" for me? It's still abstract to me. Bottom hand pull, top hand guide is what I practice even though I know it takes a conscious effort. I need guidance and have always heard you say break the rod and it's something I want to understand.
The lift also frees up the arms and micro mobilizes the line rigght before take off. It also accomodates more harmoneous first part of the forward cast to become straighter and not so much banana, so even less chance of making that ugly pig tail. Aired my 2 weight rod tonight, so at thi time we are at different poles😂
Thanks buddy! What 2 weight rod do you have? Sounds fun!
SAGE, 279 light line, I didnt use it for nearly 20 years. Never figured it out, but since taking fly fishing up again, I have extended my throw not to "kill" the weak top...Now I found the soul if it....
I fish where water is at max 3 feet and I get many more takes with ultra light gear compared to a 5 weight, so many are so concerned about the leader. My thinking is that the line scaring fish is overlooked. But if you have to man handle away from water lillies, well thats tough. Down in line size and up in leader thickness is the way to go in shallow water.
Bruce is awesome!!! Love his descriptions!
Solid casting Tim 💪 What an enormous progress you've made over the course of past 5 years. Congrats 👏
Thank you my brother. Thank you for all of your help support. Tight lines!
@@LineSpeedJediTimRawlins Always a pleasure Tim 🤝 You've become a true Jedi of spey casting 👊
Nice job crystal Santa
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Super! I love watching great casting. Thanks Tim.
..and very good casting.
Brilliant demonstration. The slo-mo is very helpful.
