Thanks for rolling through to watch this video! Thoughts? Comment below.

I can't even begin to thank you guys enough for your videos. I gotta make a pilgrimage to the shop one day

Brian I can’t thank you enough for this video. As a new fly fisherman this is incredible information. Also being in NW Wisconsin we have many very small stretches of water where you are in very confined conditions. This will be a casting game changer. Thank you and God bless.

That was an excellent video especially using a roll cast to get rid of slack prior to making an overhead cast. It also allows you to re-position the direction of the line. Good tip!

After a break of some 25 years from fishing I found my casting somewhat a bit rusty. I've watched all your casing videos which have now enabled me to be able to cast as well, or even better, than ever. Many thanks.

Watched this six months ago when I bought my rod. Very helpful to watch this again after a little practice time. So many things to learn and forget.

Thanks fore these tips, it will improve my smallstream flyfishing 👌

As usual Brian always best casting instructions I've ever watched. Never stop learning the correct way to line cast(as per you). Correct mistakes I did not even know I was making.

I had a friend take the time to show me the roll cast and it's a life saver. In Kansas we don't often have the luxury of a bank without brush or lack of overhanging trees. If it wasn't for the roll cast, fly fishing here would be very frustrating. Thanks for posting!

These casting videos are such a big help. Thank you Mad River.

Man, I learn so much from the videos. This was my first year fly fishing, well, first fall ig, only used my fly rod for salmon and steelhead so far. Excited to use my new trout fly rod next summer with these great tips. I have been watching the KZfaq channel almost every single day! I think it would be so cool if you guys did some subscriber giveaways for in person lessons

Thanks man realy helps on these tight streams

Thanks for the videos.. everyone's intimidated by flyfishing but it really is very easy. This video helped me catch my first trout on a flyrod.. damn near hit my daily limit on my first day practicing roll casting the day after I watched this video. Thanks for the priceless knowledge. Anyone can whip a fly around but I find that flyline enjoys being in water . Keep it there and just flick it wherever u want. It's so badass. U can spend a lifetime learning the ins and outs but all it really took was learning how to tie 3 knots and understanding the roll cast. And ur gonna catch fish.. gotta work on managing my extra unspooled line better but Im only two weeks in and I feel like I am one with the rig.. like I can cast an use my right hand to slow my line and make my fly land with the leader tight. I dunno if that's a good thing or not.. if I'm supposed to or not but it just kinda came naturally.

I thought about asking the question on how to make another cast, when nymph fishing, to get the line back out there without doing another false cast.. and boom, you covered it in this episode. I've been practicing a lot with the practice rods you've mentioned in a previous video. I can now double haul like the pros! Like you I find myself double hauling whenever I false cast. Thanks for all the lessons! I left Ohio a few months back. I used to fish for browns around Springfield. Too bad I didn't know about you then. Keep up the Great work, Brian! -Ken

This is going to help me a lot. The rivers in my area are lined with trees and getting line up in the air behind me is a recipe for a bad day. I’ll add this to my practice along with the traditional cast.

I happened to watch this video before I went fishing on our local lake. I found I could fish way easier using the roll cast with fewer problems. I seemed to have mastered it way quicker then the standard cast. While using this cast by chance I ended up using a heavier fly and was really able to work my way smaller to where I was putting my fly where I wanted. Thanks again for your videos.

OUTSTANDING!

Well being up here north of the Ohio state line I think I'll wait until spring to practice this, but thanks for the lesson it should come in handy in the little creek by my house. Keep the good stuff coming.

😂 After 2 hours of experimenting at the pond with the 1 o’clock striking down to the 9 oclock position, i agree - thats the wrong way. Thanks for the tips!!

I know its three years old. It's still an excellent video and still relevant.

Great instructional video!

Nice instructional video Brian 👍🎣

In 15 minutes of practice this video changed a lifetime of frustration trying to roll cast

Hey Brian thank you very much for all your very good videos. Your tips and description are easy to understand. But I just have a question. Are you going to make a video about casting very heavy flies, like sculpins or weighted flies for pike?

Great techniques

Thanks Brian good video

Works great for me on the little streams 🇺🇸

Love your videos

Love the videos! Is the next episode coming soon?

This guy has me excited to fish and slice some hot butter

Excellent video! I really appreciate all of your instructional videos. Keep up the good work!

About all the fishing I do is on small rivers, about 4 to 6 feet deep, and about 14 feet wide, and usually I'm on shore right next to massive pine trees. This ends up being my best bet for keeping the flys catching fish and not birds.

just learning how to fly fish. I fish in the eastern sierras so there's a spot that's wide open, so i got a ton of room to take my time.

You all taught me so much over the years. Hope all is well. One question. I bought new SA MPX fly line. Of course the Seller at the store told me the extra weight would help with roll casting but I'm pretty sure he lied just so I would pay for the most expensive line because it's terrible a roll casting. Is that typical with that line or is it me? Thank You

I'm here 2 years late, but thanks for the helpful lesson. Can you explain what you mean by small or large loops?

Could you please do a double haul tutorial?

Hoping someone reads this. How do you initially get the line out onto the water?

I’ve seen other people’s videos and they make this seem like a mystical cast thanks for breaking it down for me is it used more for nymphing or for dry flies also?

JUST LIKE BUTTER

BRIAN my name is Darryl Kehoe I enjoy watching your videos, extremely helpful to beginners you state that the fly caster should only be done with the arm and the hand but I have seen Joan Wullf’s videos and it’s almost like she’s pitching a baseball she uses her whole body can you explain why she does that?

Was his getting hits each time he said whoops, or just snagging bottom?

Which line are you using? I have a hard time rollcasting since I feel that I can not get the d loop to load the rod sufficently. I am using a floating line with a front taper of 7' and a fast action rod. I suspect that such a setup is not optimal for spey casting since I have an easier time spey casting with my s3 line that has a very long front taper of 18'. Do you think that my gear or my technic is the problem? I am from Sweden so therefor I appolagize for poor English.

I broke my wrist but now it hurts and has a bone popping out of the skin, is that bad?

Question: that line is a switch line??

I love my Rio outbound short but it roll casts terribly. Is outbound short just not designed for roll casts or it is the caster…aka me?

Mine always land in a crumpled mess about 4 feet in front of me.

I cant find episode 11 on the double haul!? Please tell me its still happening?

I'm in Pittsburgh can u teach me to fly fish lol

I like butter

I would say your casting is similar to a dairy product made from the fat and protein components of milk or cream

@4:22 Did you really hook into a fish on accident, while just trying to demonstrate a roll cast lol? "Oops" hahaaa

This up cast down cast stuff... why lol why does it need a new name? 🤔
