Klaus Frimor Scandi Casting

Zack Williams on Spey Cast Angle

We talk about how scandi casting came to be and why it’s not just about a line.  It’s about a completely new way of thinking.  Klaus Frimor describes where people are missing on the exact meaning of underhand casting.

And if you’re interested in the right spey rod for steelhead, Click here: wetflyswing.com/echo to see the Echo Spey Rod that has helped me drastically improve my spey cast and find more steelhead at a super reasonable cost (You also get a free spey line if you pickup the Echo Spey).  By the way, the link above is an affiliate link, which means I earn a commission if you do end up purchasing through that link.  It’s at no extra cost to you, and please if you have any questions related to this product, please let me know and I’d be happy to answer them for you.
