Proper Use of Wrist Au That Is Necessary
To Effect Perfect Cast, Expert Points Out
BY LARRY BAUER,
A. p. Feature Service Writer,

S6THE art of casting is all in
the wrist" says w. c. Collier
Of Cleveland. who performs
amazing tricks with rod and
reel. This will be news to some Of
the boys who try to sling their arms
across the lake, but let Expert Collier
continue:
There are three primary positions
after which reel position, thumbing
Of the spool, and practice about sum
up the balance Of what makes for
good casting.
"One Of the most common faults
in casting is improper thumbing of
the spool. The thumb should be in
contact with the spool throughout the
cast, except for the instant the plug is
started on its way from the rod tip
The plug should pull against the line
at all times.
Strong Snap of Wrist.
TT is important that the handles
Of the reel face straight up. In
other words the spool rides on the
left bearing entirely. Getting dis
tance in a cast is largely a matter
OF stronger snap of the wrist and
releasing the plug at a higher plane
Unfortunately, most fishermen are
determined to use their arms to get a
plug across the water. Proper casting
is wrist action only. The arms should
play no part whatever.
Just flick Of the wrist-no more.
The good angler can make a perfect
cast with his arm strapped to his side
il the wrist is free to move.
"PROPER casting does not tolerate
the side-arm caster, because cor
rect casting is an overhead action.
THE side-swiper is a caster who,
because he swings his rod in wide
horizontal circles, endangers important
parts of his companions and upsets
boats and dispositions.
For years Collier has demonstrated
the art Of casting at sportsmens
shows and other outdoor events
throughout the United States.

Sunday the curtain goes down on or
ganized sailing in Washington until
September. with A and B handicap
and comet classes racing in the Spring
final. However, for a number of skip
pers this period has only been a prov
ing ground for an extensive Summer
Of class competition to come. In ad-
dttion to number Of District craft
joining with the West River club,
yachtsmen will be out for some Of the
major regattas Of the Chesapeake Bay
area.
So successful was the Me-
mortal day regatta Of the as
sociatfon that 1t undoubtedly
will be held at Gunston Cove
from now on.
Although there was no lack Of
bunking space on the power boats
anchored in the cove, Mai. L. M.
Bricker, who sails aboard the 2O-foot
Lady Avon, took no chances. He
hitched trailer astern OF his car and
brought it down to Fort Belvoir for a
secure land berth
Local comet sailors, incidentally,
will have an opportunity to enter snap
shots of their boats in the first annual
contest Of the Comet Glass Yacht
Racing Association, which is seeking
an official picture to be used in the
1888 year book To the winner of the
contest that closes on November
goes $40.
Among recent yachts to slip of
the Corinthian Club ways after the
proverbial reconditioning and new
paint job are Arnold DANES 38-foot
Elco cruiser Arabella, the 32-foot
Buzim Of George Zimmerman and
another Elco. this the 32-foot Quest

Playtime II now that he has had
installed 130-horsepower Chris Craft
engine equipped with reduction gear.
The 45foot Ell Don OF Austin
Donaldson went overheard for
the season at this marine outfit
at Fourteenth and Water streets.
Speaking OF reduction gears, Evin-
rude Motors, who manufacture the
Evinrude-Elto outboard motor is
equipping these handy little engines
with reduction gears in three models.
Especially recommended for auxiliary
use on sailboats, runaboutS and din
ghies, these models give a more
efficient power and higher speed and
likewise cut the fuel consumption and
wear on motor parts.
