Editorial Reviews

Review

Combine natural teaching ability and a lifetime of accomplishments and you have Joan Wulff.
--Gary LaFontaine; Author; Publisher; Guide

Joan Wulff opened the doors of flycasting for me. Her best instructional wisdom is shown on this DVD.
--John Randolph, former Editor & Publisher, Fly Fisherman magazine



Product Description

This 1-hour 30-minute DVD is the culmination of Joan Wulff's 60-year career as a champion fly caster, teacher and fly fisher.  She shows and explains the mechanics and techniques she has been developing, analyzing and refining for those 60 years.  The viewer will learn the important elements of great casting, vital hand and arm movements, practice routines that teach how to make almost all kinds of casts and some very special tips. They are all shown and explained, clearly and concisely, sometimes using on-the-water demonstrations and sometimes utilizing computer graphics.

The format of the DVD is in Chapter style (20 of them), with each Chapter focusing on one aspect of casting, or on special techniques to be utilized while casting.

The DVD begins with a Chapter that highlights Joan's amazing and very successful career, her welcoming the viewer and then her explaining what she hopes will be gained by watching it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classy Casting, August 28, 2000
By Steven Wilson (Colorado Springs, CO United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Joan is a Master at her art. I wish I had been able to attend a casting school like Joan's prior to having taken up fly fishing. Her video helped me recognize some of my blatant mistakes, and how to polish other pieces of my casting form. The recommendations for practicing add life and fun to the activity - thank you Joan. The video tape teaches every advance cast I've ever heard of and although Joan makes them all look simple, she intentionally "messes up" just as we would do and then explains and demonstrates where the mistake occurs. In short it is an excellent video that is worthy of reviewing numerous times. I'm certain anyone who watches and follows this tape will improve their casting. My only disappoint is that I didn't get to actually fish with such a Classy Caster!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Teachers Heart!, January 25, 2001
By Wanda Taylor (Hiwassee River, Benton,TN USA) - See all my reviews
This video is absolutely wonderful for beginner fly fisher/casters because it helps them to understand the principles of casting and avoids getting into bad habits from the start. It's just as great for intermediate and advanced casters because it helps refine and hone good habits and style. The tape can take you from the basic substance of fly casting to the advanced angling techniques needed to put your fly on target. If you are fishing the most difficult spring creeks for trout or attempting breezy saltwater flats for bonefish, viewing and applying Joan's instructions will have you ready and confident to catch fish on a fly in any circumstances. The First Lady of fly fishing not only demonstrates the mechanic's needed to be a successful angler and fly caster but also exhibits a delightful sense of humor, making the learning process fun. I am a Federation of Fly Fishers Master Certified Casting Instructor and I highly recommend this video to all my students.

5.0 out of 5 stars Master Class, September 22, 2002
By Susan McDonough (Los Angeles CA) - See all my reviews
I think this video works on many different levels. First, it is a wonderful introduction to the grace and elegance of fly fishing by one of its masters. Joan Wulff is so tiny and her casts are so huge that you know you are dealing with a special instructor when you watch her lessons. The background on the origins of fly fishing is fun, too. Second, this tape is a great instructional tape on the art of casting. You can find all the answers to those casting problems that have bugged you for so long. The DVD version makes it easier to watch key casting tips over and over again. Give a tape or DVD to a novice for a great introduction into the magical world of fly fishing. Keep one for yourself for an easy reference for all your casting problems. Play it for your relatives during the holidays because even non fly fishers find this tape entertaining. Available in both VHS and DVD, it is a classic.
