How to improve your fly fishing back cast (and get better forward casts)

How to improve your fly fishing back cast. Is your back cast sagging too low causing or poor forward cast? You can make better fly casts by pausing in the back and allowing your fly line to straighten. Learning to stop and pause on your back cast will help you make a longer forward cast that lays out straight. This simple technique will allow you to cast farther and more consistently.

One of the most common mistakes made by fly fishing anglers, is directing the back cast down towards the ground and water. When this happens the caster must immediately begin moving forward and cannot allow the line to straighten out behind them. This will often results in short forward casts or casts that will not straighten out. Watch the different examples in this video and compare to your cast
