Learning to cast is an important part of fly fishing.
Most people picture casting as being very difficult and hard to learn.
However, taking it one step at a time and practicing every available opportunity will help to make the learning process easier. It is known that most fish are caught between ten and thirty feet, so learning to cast doesn't have to be at long distances to successfully fish. Gripping the rod properly is important before beginning to cast. If you are right handed, then you will grip the cork with your right hand. Most fishermen will grip the rod with their thumb on the top of the cork, pointing toward the first guide.
