More Detail

 

Casting should be nearly effortless. If you understand fly-casting mechanics and how to adapt them to various fishing conditions, your casting will greatly improve. That has been Lefty's philosophy since he began teaching fly casting over fifty years ago. Lefty shows how to get rid of a tailing loop, throw a slack-line cast, and roll cast better, as well as casts for tight quarters, in wind, casting with weighted flies and lines, and distance casts. A section on the physical movements explains how to prevent injuries to the rotator cuff and elbow.

What the Experts Say

"Lefty Kreh has had a wider and deeper influence upon the sport of fly fishing than any individual in generations, perhaps ever. This book, the consummate work on fly casting, exhibits the range of his talent and knowledge, as well as his skill as an instructor. Kreh goes from casting fundamentals to advanced techniques and dealing with difficult fishing situations, even analyzing tennis elbow and rotator cuff problems. This book helps any angler who uses a single-handed rod, at any level, whether fishing for trout or tarpon, sunfish or salmon. Comprehensive and clear, Casting With Lefty Kreh eclipses every book on the subject to date." -- Ed Jaworowski
