Stop and take in my surroundings for a few minutes re asses things.All about the grabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07387305681857023008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5816237972526255871.post-5452995160273619962009-09-24T12:48:59.085+03:002009-09-24T12:48:59.085+03:00I mostly agree Simon, the distance is the least im...I mostly agree Simon, the distance is the least important unless u just need to hit that special sweet spot near the reeds that surely will hold a fish.<br /><br />Especially when fly fishing from the float tube i find the distance less important. U can always just kick a few times with ur fins and there u have it a nice 30 m cast ;)<br /><br />But even though we definitely dont have the sick amount of pike that ur waters hold it still makes a big difference how u retrieve the fly and if u're awake and alert. Which at days can be hard when u kinda loose the faith in the fly or method due to no strikes in long periods.<br /><br />The last few years i've found that the stops and breaks during retrieves are some of the most important periods of the cast as the pike will often strike or nip the fly at that point.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10718593080694586465noreply@blogger.com
