We’re bringing a classic back from the vault for Casting Week here at Salt Strong!
This wasn’t your everyday fishing trip.
Most anglers picture sight fishing as poling a flat or standing on a dock… but what about three stories up on a balcony?
In the video below, you’ll not only see the Dart Cast in action but also learn how to do it yourself. Watch it and give it a shot!
Now, we know you probably won’t be sight fishing snook off balconies often (if ever), but this cast comes in clutch for tons of real-world scenarios—like skipping lures under docks, threading the needle through mangroves, or making pinpoint casts from a kayak.
Tight lines,
