Quick spey casting video

How about a spey casting class?

Spoke with long time friend Bill Calhoun a couple days back. We are looking to put together a spey casting class in the next month. If you have not heard of Bill, he was born in raised in Ventura. He is a renowned fly casting instructor and fly fishing guru. He even taught me to fly cast. Well anyway, if you might be interested call me at the shop because we need just a couple more guys. Here is Bill's web site www.ocflyfishing.com

The newest flourocarbon

TATSU - Japanese for Dragon
Throughout the centuries, the mythical, mighty dragon has been described as fierce, formidable, stealthy, and virtually indestructible.  Like the flexible, lithe, and armored scales of a Dragon, TATSU has a tough, but soft exterior, while hiding an inner strength incomparable to any other line on the planet. TATSU is a Double Structure Fluorocarbon (DSF) line. Made with two custom, 100% Seaguar Fluorocarbon resins, extruded in one solid piece, TATSU is simply the best of the very best in Seaguar lines.  No other competitor can match Seaguar's proprietary extrusion process that releases the performance power of this uniquely structured line. Seaguar's strongest and softest line, TATSU is the apex of Fluorocarbon
Made exclusively from two different 100% Seaguar resins
