That very river itself is where I fell in love with fly fishing. It’s such an incredible and special place. I’m lucky to have it practically in my back yard. ❤ Wonderful video!

[Mmoose]

As a true beginner thank you for this.

[kkp]

That makes so much sense. Thanks for the quick tutorial!

[GLACTIC_MUIN]

Love it. Gonna use this trick on the tight rivers with no space to cast from behind due to brush

[bodhi]

Now that’s some good intel! I’m still learning and that roll cast would work great in my local creek. Thanks for putting this out!!!

[blaphtome]

Seems like this might be helpful in windy conditions

Great video on how to do the roll cast! Thanks

End the forward motion with a crisp / abrupt stop while it is still fairly high (2 o'clock?). Point the tip of the rod where you want the flyline to go.

Good video. Different perspectives perfect.

[petejansen]

Thank you so much. Always worried if there is stuff behind me to get snagged on. Love it.

Old man was teaching me to full vast. I showed him a roll cast and he was like “dang you got a good roll cast

[AleksBSYT]

Thanks! Help a lot when fishing with a lot of brush.

I've been fly fishing from time to time (mostly in the spring for trout and fall for steelhead).. I have never really tried "learning" much coming from spinner/baitcaster fishing.. This helps a ton. Especially fishing mostly in smaller streams where there isn't much space behind

[davidcudlip]

Use this a lot on small midwestern spring creeks. Very tight quarters on most of them.

[garyheishman]

Thank you for this! As a beginner fly fisherman it’s tough to get the jist messed mine up first day out but feel like due to no drag I wouldn’t have much luck! Any recommendations? I feel drag is a NECESSITY when fly fishing!

[Eddie-qnyk]

Thanks I live in tight casting conditions

[MaxwellTheMf]

I needed this because I’ll be fishing the Pete Marquette in pentwater

[terrykrugii]

Thanks for this, just got done spin cast fishing over in the Driftless region of wisconsin and got absolutely skunked. Was considering learning to fly fish after that. This might very well help with that 👍

[jgrayblesser]

Thank you, suscribed. I just caught my first to rainbows fly fishing. Loving it so far. I've been fishing since I was a kid
