VIDEO #2...

water haul, water load...u will see them both used...both mean the same

this approach helped me a lot when i was flyfishing 1/32 oz jigs

Hello all,

What is the preferred leader for a #2 clouser minnow?  The reason I am asking is because I used a heavy fly for the first time today ( I am a beginner ) and I encounterd a "dog hitting the end of a leash" effect, and it was giving me alot of trouble with my casts.  I was wondering if you are supposed to use a shorter, or heavier leader in order to prevent that from happening.  I altered my cast to a more "rolling" motion as opposed to just keeping my rod straight, but it didn't really help me. 

I apologize if I sound like I have no idea what I am talking about, honestly I really don't. 

Any way, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
