The switch casting shown in Figure No. 6 will be more easily understood by reference to the diagram than from the lengthy ex- planation which will be required to describe it. i, 2, 3 and 4 show the various positions of the rod from the time the fly is on the water until the time it is just about to return to the surface. The heavy lines show approximately the shape which the line assumes at the different positions of the rod, while the dotted line indicates the course of the flies which travel in the direction of the arrow points. The switch cast, when mastered, is a method that enables one to get a tremendous amount of line out; it will also require considerable practice. xlvii.
