Leader Didn't Roll Out?


Recommended Posts

Sound like a combination of things. going from chuck and duck to a bulky air resistant fly might take a second. Try hauling your line and "over do" the line speed. Really snap it out like your trying to knock a can off a rock or something! and combine that with what was said earlier about pulling back on the line as the cast settles to the water. when that fails consider the line to leader connection, is the line cracked right at the end? also consider the taper of the leader and finally tippet size and length. 7.5 ft 5x should be pretty easy...Im not a trout guy so i just rig up my own leaders. if I was you I mignt go 15lb to 10lb to final or something. the longer the thick section the easier to cast. its probably just a softer leader with a different tapper, and casting experience...
