Thanks for all the ideas guys.
She wanted me to teach her, not someone else, so I watched a bunch of the orvis videos and took her out to a local pond. She was able to get roll casts out to 30 ft, and regular casts to about 45 with good technique. Accuracy was out the window due to wind, but I was very happy with the first trip. No fish but there were piles of people running around and very few caught that day
Funny thing is whenever her mind would wander, she would limp wrist it and pile the line up...”what did you do wrong?”
“YA I KNOW I WAS THINKING OF SOMETHING”
“well that’s why you should be fishing instead of thinking”
Next 10 casts would be perfect...then it would happen again
Work and other such nonsense has been getting in the way, hoping to get out to a pond and get her into some fish before heading to the mountains.
