 Fly Casting Accuracy
by Joan Wulff
For fly casters, the difference between catching fish and not catching
fish often boils down to whether a caster can place the fly in a square
yard of water - or a square inch. Fly-casting accuracy is a function
of concentration, technique, and, above all, training. And few
people have trained more accomplished fly casters than Joan Wulff.
Using teaching methods honed over thousands of students, Wulff leads
readers through layers of elemental skills that when combined provide
casters with the tools to deliver a fly consistently to a square inch
of water - overhead cast or roll cast, off-shoulder or sidearm, windy
day or still, short cast or long.
Joan Salvato Wulff, one of the most accomplished fly casters of all
time, is also the author of Joan Wulff's Fly-Casting Techniques.
For seventeen years she was national champion in at least one of six
casting divisions and she was recently awarded the honor of Lapis Lazuli
by the Federation of Fly Fishers. She has taught fly casting for
more than thirty-five years, and her columns have appeared regularly
for many years in Fly Rod & Reel. She lives in Livingston
Manor, New York, and is a consultant on women's tackle for the R.L.
