DVD Reviews of Joan Wulff's Dynamics of Fly Casting: From Solid Basics to Advanced Techniques
DVD Review: fly casting basics
Summary: 1 Stars
I am beginner fly fisherman and I found these basics very helpful in getting started.DVD Review: Beginner fly fisher
Summary: 5 Stars
Joan Wulff is one of those people with natural teaching skills. The DVD is really easy to follow. She explains many basic way of casting and gives you advice on how to practise at home. I think that in order to really learn how to cast you need a river and a bush at an annoying place, but in order to have a fast start Joan Wulff's DVD is superb. I would highlight the word dynamics from the DVD's title. She really explains the physics of casting, and making you understand rather than showing you and prompt you to memorize I think is her way to give us wings. Wings to explore and learn by ourselves, and who knows, perhaps to improve the current technique.
After watching the DVD several times, practicing in the garden 2 or 3 evenings and going out fishing half a dozen times, my expert fly-fishing partner is confortable enough to fish few meters away from me without having the fear of been hooked. I think watching Joan Wulff's DVD is a good starting point, at least it worked for me.
DVD Review: No Nonsense Here
Summary: 5 Stars
Although some video time is given over at the beginning to establish Joan's credentials, and there are product endorsements at the end, in between, this dvd is packed with good, clear, well thought-out, solid instructional material, presented with grace and good humor by a masterful teacher. There are no histrionics here; her style is subdued and matter-of-fact, and focuses on building your confidence through teaching the fundamentals. And at the end of each chapter, after reminding you to practice so you will succeed, she flashes that sunny grandmotherly smile, and you know you can do it. I have watched this dvd about twenty times, and I'll probably watch it fifty more, because I learn something every time I study her technique. I wish she had made more videos, and I wish she had covered the double haul in more detail. But this dvd contains the distilled essence of flycasting technique, presented by an artist and a master. There is much here to study and learn from. I highly recommend it over the others currently available. DVD Review: Graceful, intelligent and highly instructive
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD is so beautiful, Ms. Wulff so charming and graceful, that it is a real pleasure to watch it over and over. It taught me basic fly casting in short order, and it has plenty of information for advanced fly casters to consider and emulate.
I recommend it as a gift for the fly fisher with everything; if my kid had given it to me for Father's Day, I'd have been amazed and delighted.

Summary: 5 Stars
Worth seeing by any fly-fisher. More like the way we cast here in the UK than the Lefty Kreh style.
