i cast my first spey rod today with some help from joe at pacific flyfishers in millcreek.
he tought me alot of the basics and got me shooting some line, BUT, i have a tendency to use my top hand to try and power the rod especially when i focus on not doing it. i totally get the idea of using the bottom hand for power and even executed some decent casts but i have a hard time not trying to push it with my top hand.
does anyone have any excercises that they used to break this habit when you started casting?
also im casting a tcx 7126 with a rio flight 575 and a 15' type 3 sink tip and a piece of yarn if that matters.
