    Foundations of Fly Casting: Mastering Variability and Adaptability with Mac Brown

    Join Marvin Cash on The Articulate Fly fishing podcast for another essential Casting Angles segment with renowned guide and casting instructor Mac Brown, who brings over 40 years of guiding experience to this critical discussion on building foundational casting skills. Mac reveals why most anglers struggle with on-water situations despite countless hours of park practice, explaining how developing a strong foundational casting stroke facilitates the variability needed to adapt seamlessly to challenging fishing conditions from Wisconsin's Driftless area vegetation to Montana's windy rivers. Learn why "pickup and lay down" repetition leads to context dependency that fails when trees, wind and tight quarters demand creative solutions, and discover how mastering core principles like power and rod path variations enables you to throw positive and negative curve casts confidently in any fishing scenario. With delayed harvest season approaching, Mac emphasizes the importance of grass-based practice sessions that build true adaptability rather than memorized responses, transforming frustrated anglers into confident problem-solvers who can handle mangrove-covered saltwater flats or rhododendron-shrouded mountain streams with equal skill. Whether you're preparing for fall fishing or looking to break through casting plateaus, this segment provides the foundational understanding that serious fly fishing enthusiasts need to elevate their stream performance through intelligent practice and strategic skill development.

    Casting into Autumn: Tips and Tricks for Fall Fishing in East Tennessee

    The Articulate Fly delivers another essential East Tennessee Fishing Report with veteran guide Ellis Ward, covering the critical fall transition period when serious fly fishers need to adapt their approach. Ward, who operates in the premier East Tennessee tailwater system, breaks down current conditions on the Watauga River (low flows no recreational releases) and South Holston River (reliable generation), while detailing the shift to smaller fall patterns with bugs in the 16-22 range. This episode delivers actionable techniques for fishing floating lines at distance, including Ward's proven lift-and-drop method that positions anglers for downstream hook sets and eliminates problematic line slack. Ward explains why downstream positioning is crucial when everything becomes "muted by fly line stretch and rod tip," especially during the pickier fall conditions. Whether you're planning fall trips to the Watauga and South Holston systems or looking to refine your distance nymphing and dry fly techniques, this report provides the local intelligence and technical insights that separate successful anglers from the crowd.
