Casting
The basic of casting .
Back-swing The energy of the bent rod casts the lure . 1 : The start of casting . You must confirm your back for safety . 2 : Lift the rod by the turn of the wrist . 3 : Stop the rod . The rod is bent by the weight of the lure . The thumb on the front grip is effective on this point . |
|
Forward-cast Release the energy of the rod . 4 : Start the forward cast when the rod is bent by the weight of the lure enough . 5 : Release the line when the lure is above your head . 6 : Control the line by the forefinger . |
If the pause of 3 and 4 are too long , the bend of the rod is lost . In
this case you cannot cast well . If you try to cast by the strong forward
swing , it becomes the cause of troubles . Remember that " The bend
of the rod casts the lure " . |
