"Ice off" casting day.

I can't remember when was the last time I had so much fun on a first spring day casting session. Took the time and decided to do some damn pictures this time! All the credit goes to my girlfriend and her camera. I think she caught those loops and rolls pretty nicely. She was really curious of what fly-casting is and how it's done.

So to explain her very simply, I remembered what one of our great teachers of fly-casting wrote in a book. In order to be able to fly-cast, you got to make the line move. What you do with the rod tip, the line will follow. As simple as that, I told her. And I have to tell you she was pretty stoked about it at the end of the day. After all, fly-casting should be fun and make fly fishing easier.

The rod I used was my old trusted Sage TCR 4wt. and a Loop Opti Stream wf4 (tad heavy) line wich is a great line for these trick casts. I can only imagine what amazing casts could the new Sage Method do in the right hands.

I hope you'll enjoy these photos folks! I surely enjoyed the day on the water.
