What causes the above other than line being wrapped around the tip before the cast i.e. From the last catch or the wind?
Can it occur during the cast itself?
Can it occur during the cast itself?
from my experience its line twist...and wind to a lesser extent
and it can happen on the cast, mainly with float fishing...light lines lots of small eyes
at times I'm an expert on this subject
Could too much or too little line on the spool make any difference?
when I use braid it very nearly never happens, when using mono it does.
the mono when slack at some point must curl and wrap round tip whether that's the tip bouncing or not it happens.
I've found an older, well used line tends not to do it as much.
An under-arm lob might have some advantages over casting from the side.I was casting from the side; a gentle lob really as I did not need to cast out very far. The feeder went nowhere
