The first difference between fly-fishing and spin fishing is in their techniques. The first technique is casting. Fly fishing uses a method of casting called the overhand cast. In a recent interview with my mentor Bobby Buff he said that, “Unlike when using a regular spinning rod, where the weight of the bait is used to cast the line; when casting a fly rod, the weight of the line is used to cast the bait", By using back and forward motion in order to create a loop in the line, which in turn unrolls on the forward cast; this cast can be hard for some people to learn to do properly; casting is best approached and practiced with a professional instructor, school, or a proficient friend (Jardine 159).
