Mike,
I apologize to you for taking your post wrong & accusing you of taking offense to my post.
This is where I agree & disagree. Yes, your first cast (If placed well) will give you the highest likelihood of drawing a strike but I have proven to myself & many others that have fished with me over the years that repeated casts to the same target does pay off handsomely. I'm not saying that you have to do it everyday 15 times to each target, I let the fish & fishing conditions dictate how I will present my fly & if I think multiple casts to an area are warranted. When I make a cast to a promising spot where I think a fish should be I will hit it pretty hard with multiple casts trying to aggravate the fish into attacking my offering out of anger. More times than not when you do get that fish to strike after flogging the area with multiple casts the fish is usually a larger fish on the average. Try it you might be surprised what happens.Originally Posted by mikenewman
