The criteria to sign up for this clinic are the ability to do basic casts or have completed a beginner’s fly-casting classes. It is necessary to do be able to double haul on many of these casts. For this reason, the first thing we will do is to develop efficiency in the double haul. We are interested in accuracy and line control more than distance. The casts we will cover and perfect are as follows:  1. Single/double haul.  2. Shooting line.  3. Air mends/reach mends.  4. Curve casts.  5. High backhand cast.  6. The oval cast or Belgium cast. The fee for this class will be $15 in advance and is payable to Granite Bay Flycasters.
