Re: first ever pendulum casting
It`s ok Jules, for your first attempts, but, at the end of the cast, don`t drop your rod tip to the beach. Hold your tip up at about 45 degrees until the lead splashes down. This will keep the line flowing along the rod with least resistance. It also looks good too!..

Re: first ever pendulum casting
Not bad for a first attempt.Try looking up and stopping the rod at
the end of the cast.

Re: first ever pendulum casting
Colin is definitely the man to sort it, improved my casting no end, although some would disagree when I go over them
Re: first ever pendulum casting
Looks good to me, very smooth action there, beats my overhead lob!

Hi jules
Did you get the video from side ways on? That was a better angle.
Keep up the practise and then next time we meet we can work on body rotation, rod angle, punch pull so not much left to work on!!!!!!!

Re: first ever pendulum casting
Looks good jules, i got nothing to add. Its easy to point out things with others casting but putting what you know into practice is a nightmare as i found out when i videoed one of mine

Re: first ever pendulum casting
keep the right arm out and straight.
use the left hand to propel the lead out and back
dont bury the rod tip in the shingle
look up at the sky. not the horizon
