Experienced anglers know that a restricted casting motion can ruin a day on the water. Your cast can be disrupted by obstacles, other anglers, wind, and many other factors, but have you ever though about the clothes you wear?
The apparel you wear can make an impact on your cast as well, and it could be the difference between an exciting day on the water and an empty live well.
Better Range of Motion Means More Fish
No matter what type of fish you are after, having a smooth, accurate cast is always important. Whether you are fishing with plastic lures in shallow water or casting cut-bait into the deep blue sea, you need to be able to swing your arms freely so that you can make an accurate and effective cast.
Take sight fishing for example. When sight fishing, you are constantly looking for fish in clear, shallow water, scanning the area for any sign of a potential prize. As soon as you spot one, you need to quickly cast towards the fish.
Not only do you need to make a quick cast, you also need accuracy. The lure needs to fly just right so it lands where the fish can see it but doesn’t make a large splash, which might scare away your catch. You need to be ready to cast in any direction, and because of obstructions and your fellow anglers, you need to be able to use side arm and backhand casts to maximize your fishing.
After all, more casts mean more fish!
As you can see, flexibility and range of motion is important, so what does that have to do with your fishing apparel? As any experienced angler will tell you, having the right fishing apparel can make a big difference between an inaccurate drop and the perfect cast.
