This video segment on the Snap-T cast is from Single-Handed Fly Rod Casting Using Spey Casting Techniques (Jeff Putnam's Fly Fishing Schools, DVD, HD DVD and Blu-Ray).

Jeff Putnam, a Federation of Fly Fishers Certified Two-Handed Casting Instructor, covers the Switch Cast, a non-direction-changing cast used primarily for developing essential spey casting skills, including the "D" Loop, anchor point, acceleration, rod path and timing. The video incorporates slow-motion and overhead-view casting footage ending with on-water instructional fishing for wild rainbow trout.
