Spey casting Myth Busted: Scandi lines

One big myth in spey casting is that you must accelerate into a low. flat high speed V loop to create a high line speed spey Cast. There are two critical elements of a Healthy D loop. Zero Slack and Tension. No more power is necessary in the sweep than to create a tensioned D loop completely void of slack. After a gentle sweep where the rod tip travels in an incline path , (line follows the rod tip path) The lift must not be to high or low but moderate and slow, and the path of the rod tip should not dip down too abruptly or the results will be a crashed anchor

the beginning of the sweep must be slow and remain so throughout, and must absolutely travel in an incline path after passing the castors position. The bottom leg of the D loop floats down by way of gravity, giving the caster plenty of time to raise the elbows and prepare for the forward cast. As the anchor touches down lightly the forward cast is applied at just the right time. Top early and the line will slip, blowing the anchor. If the forward cast is applied too late the line will stick and too much power will need to be applied to the forward cast. A light, straight anchor, placed slightly forward of the caster not further than a rod tip off to the side of the caster, should produce just enough grip on the water that the forward cast alone will load the rod and create high line speed. There is no need to overpower the sweep. A properly tensioned D loop that floats down to the water's surface is sufficient to create high linespeeds. Tight lines my friends!
