![🌬️🎣 Casting into the Wind – A March Fly Fishing Challenge! 🎣🌬️
What better way to hone your fly fishing skills than practicing in a true PNW breeze? 💨 On a gusty March afternoon at Lake Ballinger Center last Saturday, mentors and new fishers paired up on the back lawn, mastering the art of casting with the wind—and against it!
💡 Key takeaways from the day:
✔️ Adjusting casting angles for better line control
✔️ Learning to use the wind to your advantage
✔️ Gaining confidence for real stillwater conditions
Every loop, every cast, every gust—it’s all part of the learning process. Big thanks to our mentors for sharing their expertise, and to all the new fishers who braved the breeze with spirited enthusiasm!
🔥 Who else loves a good windy day casting session? Drop a 🎣 in the comments!
