drift . dont rises to them stevie mate they just jealous ;D ;D ;D
have you any flees left or are they all stuck in your jacket ;D ;D

[scanny]

It was one of those days. I managed to stick one of the rapalla trebles into my jacket merely holding the professional ghillies rod. I almost felt magnetic they were being drawn to me so well.

I'll not be stuck if I loose my flea box with a few in the jacket

Always handy to have a few here and there when wading. David puts them inside his hat, but that just takes time, at least in the jacket you can change quickly,

when you bringing your range of rods, reels and lines out?

rods with vibrating butt plug so you can get extra motion in yor fly

[scanny]

I'm taking up barbless spinning from now on, far less ridicule

[scanny]

Even I'm impressed with this, just noticed it, see what the drift can do for you

I'll give Martin a few lessons on Saturday so he can pass on the magic of the drift

hows this Stevie from link from casting instructors web site on this form
The key is steady, ultra smooth movements with a correct overall speed that, most importantly, allows the rod to load and unload efficiently in a gradual incline. Therefore not an arched convex curve with a pull in or pull down behind. The furthest back position the rod tip reaches is arrived at by the rod tip (rising) to get there no matter how (slight) the (incline). The pace of the aforementioned movements is extremely important to achieving the correct result and line speed. If done correctly as described we will be able to form a very compressed and dynamic V-loop, allowing us to drift backwards and upwards until the rod is correctly aligned 180 degrees opposite to the target area at around a 30 degree angle to the water's surface. In this position we have opened up the casting arc allowing force and speed to be applied progressively over the furthest distance.
