- In this episode of RIO's "How To" series, RIO brand manager Simon Gawesworth explains how to improve your Snap T cast. If you have got past the basics of the Snap T and want to take your cast to the next level, this film gives you three excellent tips that will do just that - the "XY Axis", "The Box", and the D-Loop acceleration.
If you get confused by this film, and are not yet ready for the more technical elements that Simon demonstrates and explains in this film, you can check out the earlier How To Make A Snap T Cast video, as this is a great starting point for the beginning Snap T caster. You can find that video here: www.rioproduct...
Clearly explained in Simon's easy-going, simple-to-understand style, this is a great film for anyone wanting to improve their Snap T.
RIO's "How To" videos are a series of short films that explain all you need to know to learn a particular way to fish or cast. Where applicable, each film talks through the gear that you need, shows how to rig the gear, how to read the water, and how to fish that particular technique. These educational films are packed with information and top tips designed to improve the knowledge and skill level of all fly fishers. Each one is bought to you by a RIO employee or a RIO brand ambassador.
As a self-taught spey caster, I love these videos. Not only is aSimon really good at explaining things, the overhead video shots are just really helpful.
Thanks Mate! Keep after it!
This is maybe the best instructional video I have ever seen.
Thanks LSJ, we'll pass that on to Simon - he'll be delighted to hear of your praise.
The added top view makes wonders for the learning.
Excellent, glad that helps you...
Another cracking video by one of the best casting instructors in the world👍👍👍
Thanks Aidan, we're glad you enjoyed it.
I was working with a longer spey line and struggling with some distance. This video helped straighten me right out. Keeping the line tighter to me was the game changer! Bigger loop from there and boom, there we go! Thanks Rio and Simon for another stellar video.
Really appreciate this. Honestly, I’ve learned all my spey casts from Simon’s videos over the past couple years. Describes it so well. Makes me feel like a pro.
Thanks, we'll pass that on to Simon but we're glad you enjoyed this episode.
Simon you are a master! Thanks again for explaining everything to such a small detail :)
Thanks for the kind words mate!
What I do not wanna do is though the DH rod and start golf!😂
*I found these ball bearing swivel snaps to **enjoyable.fishing** recommend it’s be just as effective in every aspect as the much more expensive brand name snaps.*
Stellar teaching with easy to remember components. A lot of good thinking and prep goes into figuring out how to explain this to folks. Thanks!
Thanks, we're glad you enjoyed it.
Very nice explanation of the cast. Outstanding tips.
Thanks, we're glad you like it.
Always love your video- well made and Uber educational. Thank you!
Good to know, thanks Cory
Ya gotta love this guy! Brillant stuff and I love the "pretty Rad" bit😂
When you live in the west long enough, you tend to pick up the lingo. Haha! Thank you!
Simon, when you talk about longer spey lines, what sort of dimensions are you thinking of 45 foot? 60 foot or even longer? It would be very helpful to know.
Molto bravo Mr. Simon
Glad you enjoyed the video :)
Top notch as ever
Thanks, we're glad you like it.
Awesome! Great video and tips!
Glad it was helpful!
Pretty rad
Thanks, you're rad.
Just great!!
Thanks :)
Fantastic video again. Just out of curiosity, To what extend will these improvements go with short head lines like skagit and with heavy sinking tips?
Hi Marijn, we asked Simon to clarify, and he said that it is rarely necessary to use these more advanced tips with a short head line, but if you do, the methods are exactly the same. He did say that the tip about trying to land the line tip in the "square" is less essential as the cast will still work very well with a short head line if the line tip doesn't land in the square - that' the nature (and advantage) of using a short head line, compared to the long belly line Simon used.
He did say that if you applied these improvements to even a short head Skagit line, you will get more distance, and far more efficient casts, but that it is also a bit of a learning curve to get the "touch" required to master these refinements.
Hopefully that helps in some way?
I thought the whole point of the longer lines was to avoid making noise, namely, employing the single spey. Great video, just wondering.
That's certainly 1 benefit of a longer line!
Would this still work when there are obstacles in the background? It seems that this exaggerated D loop goes way back behind the caster.
Yeah, good point, Ahmed. You do have to have the room behind you for that extra big D-loop. In really tight situations, you want the shorted fly line, and the smallest D-loop you can get.
👍👍
What tips do you put on the end of those longer lines? I take it you aren't throwing T-Tips on
No, those longer lines don't cast T and MOW tips well, so we recommend Versi/Poly Leaders if you need to get some depth with those long head lines.
