SO YOU WANT TO MAKE A LONG FLY CAST? WHO BETTER TO TELL YOU HOW THAN FORMER WORLD CHAMPION TIM RAJEFF.
The name Rajeff rings out in the world of competitive fly casting. Brothers Tim and Steve have been a force of nature for decades, holding a slew of records between them. Like any siblings, there’s been a little competition too.
“In order to beat my brother, I had to learn a whole new way of casting,” Tim told me.
Tim did eventually best his brother with a style of casting he playfully refers to as “Abstract Hyper-Distance Theory”
“It’s abstract because you would never fish that way,” he explains.
Still, much of this casting technique has made it into real fly fishing. Some of the best casters I know use Tim’s technique very effectively in their fly fishing. It’s not for the faint of heart but if you are looking to throw long casts, even in heavy wind, this will help you do it.
