I used to practice casting in the wind all the time.... Just so I was ready for this time of year. I hate the wind. Be it while I'm fly'n or ride'n.

I could have been ticked off at the wind but we shared the day together. She gave me broken water to disguise my presence most of the time and short windows to cast. A good friend!

RC,
I enjoy casting into wind like today's. It gives me an opportunity to practice my ducking! ;-)
I was out fishing with her on Spring creek yesterday myself, she can be a fickle friend in deed.Maurice wrote:
It was very windy for me today. And I was fishing in a willow tunnel. Once I realized I couldn't beat it I waited until it stopped for a second and punched out a cast. It was one of the connecting with nature moments that made the day so much more rewarding.

Back cast is a good idea, I'll have to try that. I use a side arm cast in the wind and keep the line low and clost to the water. Takes some practice, but it gets the job done.
