    Very good video. You explain and show the techniques with ease. (Actually graceful)

    Thanks for showing the steps and landing a Dolly trout. Think I look for more of your videos and see what that's about.

    so much splattering and smacking the water. And so little drift. you drop your rod tip and you line lands before the fly. getting the line out in a straight line but at the cost of a terrible presentation, massive water disturbance and a short drift. it was unbearable to watch. my uncle would have made you walk home.

    It would help a lot if you explained your terms like "Anchor". I've fly fished in mountain streams and lakes. After watching the videos, I still don't know why Spey casting is any different than roll casting.

    I live in Brazil and Spey is a very new sport here, few people really know. I see this video and I will get along better and easier with Spey. This video tutorial has a very simple and straightforward didactic phase that progresses to modality. The video the Teacher,is very goog. I appended a lot with the video. Thank you.

    I've been fly fishing for trout basically my whole life, over 30 years. Dad taught me when I was 8. I live in Colorado and mostly fish medium/small rivers and small mountain creeks with a little 2 wt. Never even tried spey casting. Maybe it's time to learn something new.

    I still don't know what you were doing or how you did it. You talked about different cars but I could not tell what you were doing or figure out what you did. I've caught many fish on my fly rod, but never heard of "spey" or "skagit" and I still don't know what they are.

    good video. Not many talk about the need to change the cast depending on whether the wind is up or down stream. So, all things being equal, in a downstream wind I'd do a double spey casting from my downstream side and with an upstream wind, a snap-C casting from my upstream side?

    So I just got a 11'6 4wt Hydrogen trout spey, and i'm wondering if i can throw the rio gamechanger on it which is 25 grains high of the rods grain window. I want the gamechanger because the head is multidensity which will really get me down. If i cant use it, what are some other options?

    I always use Scandi line but want to switch to Skagit would a 540 gr. Skagit be ok for a 13ft. Sage X 8wt. or my 13.3ft. Loomis Pro 8wt.? and could i use it on my Winston 7wt.?
    Thanks and i love your instruction videos. Could you make one about fishing Salmon?

    Hi there, Great video! Dwayne from Australia. Can you answer a question for me? I'm thinking of buying my first two handed rod, a 13ft 7wt. For an intermediate head how many grains would i buy? I see grain numbers but don't know many many grains would be best for a 7wt. Thank you so much.
