Two Fly Casting Legends Share Their Top Fly Fishing Casts

Dave Rothrock and Phil Gay have over 120 years of fly fishing experience between them. They share their experience and the types of casts and applications to use those fly casts to defeat a fly fisher’s arch nemesis, drag, and to catch more fish. The five major casts they cover are the reach cast, bump cast (aerial mends), serpentine cast, curve cast, and Phil’s signature cast, the down stream roll ahead cast which he taught to Lefty Kreh. https://www.youtube.com/ @philgay3511 0:00 Intro 0:25 Reach Cast 2:39 Bump Cast 5:10 Circle Cast 7:50 Phil's down stream roll ahead cast 11:40 Serpentine Cast 12:30 Bonus Cast!
