of the process of fly-casting, there does not exist a comprehensive scientific

current world-record is 236 ft). The fly lure is attached to a short invisible
t t t t t t t t t t t t t
leader about 15-ft long, which is in turn attached to a longer and thicker
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
Dacron line. The objective is cast the fly lure to a distant spot with dead-
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
eye accuracy so that the thicker part of the line touches the water first
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
and then the fly gently settles on the water just as an insect might.
