Welcome to our ninth installment of "Ask a Fly-Fishing Instructor," in which we answer readers' questions about their largest fly-casting problems. A couple of weeks ago, reader "Steve" wrote, "Thanks for the fantastic suggestions. My problem is with presentation. Generally my flies land with a splat. What would help attain a much more delicate presentation?" In this lesson, Peter shows how the secret to a delicate presentation is in controlling the rod tip. If you drop the rod tip too early on the presentation cast, the fly line doesn't roll out entirely and rather "crashes" to the surface. Instead, the rod tip really should stop at or about eye level to let the loop roll out. Only then should you lower the rod tip. Tell your self, "Quit then drop," and you should get a greater presentation. You can run into a comparable "splatting" issue if your casting stroke is angled downward toward the water. By keeping the line moving much more horizontally, you give the line time to roll out above the water's surface, which lets the fly flutter downward far more gently. When you've got the fundamentals down, it's time to put Pete's lessons to work by practicing on your own lawn.
