I coulda hit u up for some pointers to help my horrible casting This may seems cheesy to some but as someone just getting into recreational fly fishing (for pike mainly)...I ordered one of these to work on casting technique.http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B009DSOJM0/ref=pe_386430_30332290_TE_3p_dp_1>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4C9ZMtySrk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flybum 95 Report post Posted September 10, 2014 Orvis makes the practicaster and echo makes a decent one as well. I'm lucky enough to have a HUGE area at work that I cast in during the winter months but I have played with the orvis one and it's pretty fun. The echo makes a Spey adapter for theirs if you were ever interested. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hauntedyards Report post Posted September 11, 2014 I don't even have my rod yet... I basically want to start fly fishing for pike and I know a few guys at Pike Strike Sweden who all rave about Vision rods and reels so I was going to order the Vision Pike outfit to start. I called Jocelin LeBlanc from Le Repère Des Moucheurs in Quebec who is has been fly fishing pike for decades, is the Vision dealer and he basically told me he could order the kit for me but refused and instead set me up with a way better setup, large arbor aluminum reel, extra rolls of steel tippet, 7 of his custom pike flies and a bunch of extras for the same price as the intro kit from Vision. Taxes and free shipping included. Sometimes you find a business owner that is so passionate about what he does he can't even sell someone what they want but instead gives them what they need. Never been happier someone with a thick french accent called me and used the word "crappy" so many times on the phone... LOLCan't wait to get out there!
