Popular Post Allen ★ Posted March 7, 2022 Popular Post Share #1 Posted March 7, 2022 SC defensive lineman. Giant of a human. Local kid, he asked to learn so I spent an hour or showing him the basics. He picked up on things quick. Real quick. Cast his first fly rod and caught his first trout. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if you can teach him how to tackle or get to the QB, they might not suck so much But, hey, the Gamecock women's basketball team is good. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me the better part of a day to get a serviceable cast down. Good instruction helps for sure but some take to the cast more quickly than others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsharr ★ Posted March 7, 2022 Share #4 Posted March 7, 2022 I have found that great athletes are great athletes, no matter the sport. Glad you turned another fly addict loose on the trout of this world. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only had to correct him once or twice on poor form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got it down in one fishing trip, 2 hours or so on the water. The second fishing trip a month or two later he learned how to double haul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
