Spey casting with single-handed and double-handed rods, Scandinavian style Lessons from the world-famous guide and instructor for casting distance with ease
Henrik Mortensen's version of Scandinavian casting was designed to catch fish no matter where the caster is on the river—it is the most adaptable and flexible casting technique, giving the flyfisher the ability to handle any situation he encounters effortlessly.
Mortensen shares the essentials of fly casting with single- and double-handed rods in the Scandinavian tradition, beginning with the basic technique of the overhead cast. An explanation of the physics of the proper cast—and how the rod, line, leader, and fly work as a balanced unit—tell how Scandinavian casting makes it a pleasure to cast and fish. The author covers the tried-and-true knots that are best for this style of casting and how to add the single and double haul to your casts.

Fly Casting
Typical Gierach. Quality writing. Humorous and educational.
Being from the part of Colorado where Gierach mainly honed his craft as a writer and an angler, I get varying reports about the man behind the books. Some good, some bad. I have learned not to judge an angler by his writing ability. There are many cats who write beautifully and can't fish for shit. The reverse also holds true.
I no longer fly fish but I like a good fly fishing book. Gierach is one of the best fly casting authors we have. He was in the tackle shop I frequent (Bennetts in Berthoud) a few months back and I missed him by a day or so. He was buying steel leaders for a musky trip. Apparently he's not as much of a bamboo rod, dry-fly purist as he'd like us to believe. :)
I'd like to talk to the guy so I can form my own opinion of the man instead of relying on second hand information from buddies that have met him and fished with him.
Good read just the same.
