No doubt. This young man is exceptionally athletic, and was a very good caster considering he was self taught. He learned to double haul on you tube!

I checked his leader after 3 hours of casting to and catching fish, and not a single wind knot!

We all have to start somewhere! With me, it was a 9’ 7wt Ted Williams two piece tubular glass rod with a 7 wt level line on a pfluegar “automatic” reel when I was about 8 years old.
