"Essential River Fly Fishing Casts" - Far Bank Fly Fishing School, Episode 11

This episode of the Far Bank Fly Fishing School series focuses on a selection of essential casts that all river anglers should know. Some of the casts in this episode allow anglers to fish in situations that they wouldn't normally be able to do so knowing only the overhead cast, while other casts create better ways to present the fly to the fish and increase the odds of getting it to eat.

Whether you're a first-time river fly fisher, someone who has fished rivers in the past but wants to up their game, or you just want to learn some really cool, highly useful casts this episode is for you.

In this episode Far Bank head fly fishing instructor Simon Gawesworth, explains and demonstrates how to learn and master the roll cast, the side cast, the reach cast, the aerial mend, and shows a number of ways to make a slack line cast - all casts that will help you greatly increase your success on the water.
