"ADVANCED TECHNIQUES" is from "Joan Wulff's Dynamics of Fly Casting" (Miracle Productions, DVD, 90 minutes), in which a recognized master of fly casting instruction demonstrates the elements of great casting: vital hand and arm movements and practice routines for learning almost all kinds of casts.
Excerpt: "Presentation is all about positioning. If you can stand hidden from the trout, and make a straight line presentation, you've got it made. But sometimes we have difficult circumstances. Right now I have deep water ahead of me, so a straight line cast would go over the rock, not in front of it. I'll do a curve cast, starting with a horizontal stroke to the target area. Then, as the line is unrolling I'll quickly move the rod sideward and pull it back in close to me in a curve, at the same time slipping line."
