High Speed Video of Ultralight Spin Casting

The high speed video shows author, instructor and avid angler Joe Robinson demonstrating three styles of advanced casting techniques for ultralight spin fishing.

The rod that Joe uses for this video is a custom-built ultralight spinning rod made from the top of a 2wt fly rod blank. These casting styles require a "slow" rod with a deep, gentle bend. He is casting a 1/16th ounce casting dummy on 2.3lbs line (actually 7x tippet material). With this setup, Joe consistently casts 40-50ft with incredible accuracy.
