Fly Fishing: What are tailing loops and how to stop them (with slow motion)

Tailing loops when fly casting can cause knotted leaders, tangled line, and missed opportunities. Tailing loops and closed loops are often confused with each other. The most common causes and solutions to tailing loops are often incorrectly defined and taught as well.

In several of my past tailing loop videos, I formed tailing loops by doing things not often seen in real fishing situations. Thanks to a great seminar earlier this year taught by Macauley Lord, I was inspired to redo my tailing loop video. I encourage you to check out his channel at    / 4mackle  . It is full of great casting instruction. #flyfishing #flycasting #tailingloops #windknots #castinginstruction #howtoflyfish
