"In order to form the most efficient, least air resistant loops, you must move the rod tip in a straight line path - in both vertical and horizontal planes."
This three minute lesson covers the three main loop shapes and the actions that create them.
Beginner through to expert - If you have even the vaguest interest in improving your cast - these lessons are absolutely invaluable. These "5 Essentials" have become the foundation of all sound teaching and are the cornerstone of the Federation of Fly Fishers casting program. (h/t On The Fly Productions)

Hebgen & Quake Lakes: The ice is now officially gone on both Hebgen & Quake. Its been very hit or miss but if you can time it right and get a day with little to no wind, the chironomid fishing has been pretty solid. Streamers have been moving some fish on the less than ideal condition days. Smaller midge nymphs like buzzers and ice cream cones have been the ticket though as of late.
Hebgen: The Lakes are both still fully iced over and will most likely continue to be for some time.
