From the publisher
From the rear cover
The Orvis Guide to Better Fly Casting takes a problem-solving approach to making poor flycasters good, and good flycasters great. Orvis Pro Staffer Al Kyte explains the most fundamental aspects of the mechanics of fly-rod casting, the five so-called "rod variables"--tilt, stroke length, bend, angle of rotation, and speed--and then describes how subtle changes in these variables affect the way a fly rod moves. Using these fundamentals, anglers can learn how to control the rod, line, leader, and fly to achieve perfect presentations and improve their success on the water.
