Book excerpt: lly, the elements of two-handed fly casting are demystified! Two-handed rods have moved from relative obscurity to the forefront of modern fly-fishing. Their advantages over single-handed rods are undeniable, especially on large rivers, and places where back casting is difficult or impossible. Casting these powerful rods takes considerably less effort than traditional single-handed casting once the basics are mastered. The use of both hands allows the caster to use leverage to drive the cast, taking stress off the arms and shoulders. This makes Spey-casting ideal for anyone who has experienced a loss of strength, or for those who may have experienced fatigue casting heavy single-handed rods. In this practical, straght-forward manual, America's leading instructor reveals the secrets of 16 different Spey casts. East cast is presented in clear step-by-step progression, accompanied by superb photography and illustrations.
