    Default Pretty nice..........

    I think he started practicing at about 10 years old and has never quit?

    I was going to say that "I taught him everything he knows", but I don't think I would be able to get away with it.

    On the top photo , I sure hope that is an "oval" cast - if it's an overhead cast , it looks like a tailing loop . Having said that , I had a chance to see Jeff P. cast at the Expo a few years ago . In my opinion , the BEST caster I've ever seen - what he can do w/ a 5 wt. and floating line makes me want to hide in shame in the basement . D.J.L.

    Jeff's loop is off to the side making the loop look like it will tail.
