ironfly Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Exactly what I tell my students. I teach them two major styles of casting, which I describe as the chopping wood method (flicking paint) and the sawing wood method (throwing a paper airplane). There's no telling which will work better for any given person. I also tell them there are other methods (I suck at Lefty's method, so I don't even try), encourage them to Youtube some videos, and that with practice their subconscious will figure out what works best for them. Whether that's one method over another, or a hybrid style. Thanks Uberfly and mid current for the backup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taco Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I call my castin' style The Windmill Method. Someone once described it as lookin like someone tryin' not to fall off the woodpile but I catch fish...... at least the easy ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
