Distance Casting
with FFF Master Instructor Eric
Cook.
This workshop will cover tips and
techniques for adding distance to your
cast. The secrets are in the details and
there will be things you never thought
of that will change the way you get
distance from now on. These details will
enable you to reach the fish that were
once out of your range with not only
increased distance but with increased
control and accuracy. The ability to
double haul is recommended. Bring 5
weight or heavier lines and rods - no
shooting heads.
