The BEST Fly Casting Lessons I've Ever Heard - Fly Casting (feat. Flip Pallot)

Thanks for watching our fly casting conversation with Flip Pallot - Let us know if you'd like to see more from Flip in the comments below!

Back in the 50's my Dad taught me how to fly cast. I wanted to use my whole arm ( Like using a bull whip ). He took a belt ( placed around my chest ) and fastened my upper arm against my side so it would not move. This made me only use the lower part of my arm and wrist. I was ready to use a fly rod when I could cast a fly without using the upper portion of my arm. I also had to have the fly land on a paper plate sized target for lure placement. Same thing when using a casting rod , proper lure placement was expected. Just some of his teachings which has stuck with me to these 77 years.

There's something about Flip telling you something vs. anybody else telling you, that just makes sense. I honestly believe that we sometimes overlook how good of a teacher he actually is. And so is Brian, his instructional videos are by far some of my favorites and I revisit them regularly. Thanks for this.

“Oh idk if I said that?… but I agree with it. I wish I had said it.” Man I can relate to that

Can never have enough of Flip or Lefty.

The amount of knowledge sitting in front of the camera is on another level! Thank you again Brian, for putting out great content!

"I didn't say that!" --Flip Pallot

I respect everything this man says and does. I try to watch and hear him every time I get the chance. Thanks so much to you both.

Now that life has finally slowed down for me, its time to get back to learning to fly fish again. Probably gonna start getting a vise and tools together too. I'll have to watch the fly casting series again. Another inspiring video thanks guys.

Being a fly angler out of south Florida I’ve watched the walkers Kay chronicles growing up ,and I could not imagine not doing so, he had taught so much throughout the series aswell as his videos and they have taught me everything I know as a fly angler. This man will live on a legacy for ever, absolute legend! Thank you for the video and I hope to see more!

I just want to say a big thank you for all the help you've done. I watched all your "learn to fly" videos before I started fly fishing. It helped me a lot getting started. But the magic happend when I re-watched them a bit later, and saw the details in the videos instead of the general idea. It took me to the next level. So thanks again! Kings regards from Sweden 🇸🇪🙏

Any time you get Brian and Flip together it is fantastic. So much respect for each other and the amount that we all gain is immeasurable. Thanks for making content like this.

Absolutely more content with Flip! Y’all just need to make a whole Flip playlist.

The most useful fishing video I have seen in many years. Thank you.

So much experience in this video. Thank you so much for this video! It simplifies casting thought

Any video with Flip is a good one

9:50 Golden words. “Don’t cast the fly line, cast the leader and the fly🤩👍 thanks Flip & Brian

I am a beginning beginner. This lesson on casting was great! Thank you. I never understood why some said, don’t break your wrist. That doesn’t make sense to me. Now I know about the full cast! Thank you for sharing this wisdom!
