As you can see.....I'M BACK ON LINE.  I see, however, that I'm going to have to pick and choose my messages to share and space them out differently.  We'll see how that works out.  Also, I may see fit to combine several messages in to one so that the total number of messages sent doesn't trigger a hate letter from my server who will then vent his spite by cutting me off.

Hi Gordy,

 

Nice reply; I agree with all points. Something that should perhaps be noted is that with point one, there will be less rod bend for the same given line speed, which means less counterflex and a tighter loop.

 

I too call 5 the triple haul, but I may have to stop doing this after you've defined haul :-)

 

Cheers,

Paul

Paul Arden's comment about an earlier message which he quotes .  My comment below his text :-

 

 

" have discovered that this move, the double haul, places more stress on the rod than any other cast I know. During the double haul there are a lot of things going on: more power exerted on the rod itself, more line stress, more energy being loaded and unloaded, more physical stress by the caster, etc"

 

Hi Gordy,

I don't think there's any line/rod combination that can't be cast.

Just a comment on the above, I don't believe that the double haul significantly increases rod flex; in fact for a cast of the same line speed there will be less rod loading with the hauled cast since line speed is a summation of tip speed plus haul speed. Besides I think the best distance casters haul as the rod is unloading.

Hope all is well :-))

Cheers,

Paul
