Throwing instruction

Here you can watch the film in its entirety. Casting & Strategy is also divided into 23 different chapters further down this page, so that you can more easily find or return to exactly the chapters that are relevant to you.

In chapter 1, Ronny gets into them completely
basic physical premises in the dynamics of the fly cast - here you will learn more about the construction of the line bow and how you apply this knowledge in your fishing.

In chapter 2, the two basic castes are reviewed - that's included
starting point in these basic throws, that all special throws can be deployed. You will learn here about the basic movements in the two casts as well as the important aspects in the movement of the lines. So this is a basic section that helps you towards one
understanding of the basic castes and the options you have based on these two castes.

In this section, the focus is on how to angle your overhand cast - this is an absolutely essential chapter for those of you who fish in streams and rivers - an angled overhand cast is one of the most effective casts to have in your arsenal. The cast does not disturb the water, is very precise and easy to manipulate in the discharge phase of the cast. Think of this as the basic throw you need most in your arsenal. Far too many stubbornly maintain that they want to underhand cast along the Danish salmon rivers, but if there is room behind one, then the angled overhand cast is much better

In this episode, Ronny focuses on the gear, how to set it up and how to get the most out of it. There is no doubt that good tackle adaptation is a basic requirement for good casts, and good casts are a basic requirement for good fishing.

In this section, learn a little about how the different rod actions can be used for practical fishing. Maybe you will be inspired to find the right rod action for you and your fishing, and maybe it is not at all what you have thought until now... Read more about the LTS-complete rods, which have a very special action that will really be a game-changer for many.

The length of your shooting head must match the fishing ground and the demands this places on you – if you have plenty of space and have to cast far, this makes different demands than if it is cramped and you have to fish with a high degree of control close to yourself. This section focuses on shooting head lengths in relation to the physical realities of the fishing waters.

The density of your line is essential in relation to presenting your fly at the correct depth. There are many options available today - take a look here and get an insight into the options available. The LTS SCSS lines are a really good bet for a line system that takes flexibility to the extreme - read more about it here

Your ability to keep track of the loose line is essential for problem-free fishing. This section shows you a very simple method to keep track of your skyeline/running line. Take a look at the selection from LTS in our shop.

This section focuses on the two different throwing technique starting points – traditional spey vs. Modern Scandinavian throwing technique. Dive into the differences and see if there is something you can be inspired by…

Get a handle on the wrapped underhand throw - this chapter covers all the important aspects of the angled underhand throw. Get a handle on everything from foot position to anchor point and its importance for angling ability.

In underhand and spear throws, a good understanding of the D-loop is essential. In this section, all aspects of the D-loop are reviewed as well as how to achieve an optimal D-loop.

In some places there are many obstacles – reeds over the stream, trees right behind the thrower and much more. In this section, the most important special cast for fishing is reviewed, especially in the Danish salmon rivers.

Sometimes the trees also overhang the stream on the other side, where the good fishing spots are - see here how you cast under branches at a toxic salmon spot.

How do you handle when you have trees over your head and you need to fish a toxic spot without getting tangled in tree branches and breaking the tip of your own fly rod? Get the answer here.

How do I build up my cast so that my fly has time to sink at the same time that I get the right angle on the water and thus the right speed of the fly when it swings over the stream? Watch here and be presented with a simple option just to pick up and put in your own throwing repertoire.

Sometimes it is not possible to make a reach cast – the stream is simply too narrow. How do you get the fly down and at the same time make a sensible swing over the stream.

In the Danish salmon and sea trout ponds, the own side is often very toxic - especially when we fish towards a bend where there is an "Inside curve", see here how you can fish these places very effectively and expose your fly as best as possible to the fish, which is on its own page.

Being able to throw with your left hand at the top of the bar is really an advantage in many contexts - see here how.

Skagit has become a very popular phenomenon, and there are a lot of good reasons for that. Here, get an insight into the advantages and disadvantages of this way of throwing and building up your line setup.

This is the big challenge of sea trout fishing – light tackle and big flies. Get here a good introduction to how you can get a super good presentation of the big flies we use for evening and night fishing with just a few tools. Truly a must see.

In this section, the focus is on really tight conditions at the river. Get a tip on how to get around this challenge.

Especially in rivers in Norway and Sweden and other places in the world where there are large stones in the water or other obstacles. Here Ronny reviews how you can use roll casts and circles to get around the obstacles you encounter - a good video if you are going outside the country's borders in pursuit of majestic salmon.

Sometimes distance is necessary - see here how to cast far and achieve maximum distance still coined fishing and the situations where it may be necessary.
