Casting like the Flemish

I thought I'd heard of them all... The roll, the steeple, the Spey, the overhead, the reach cast, the Skagit, the double haul. (It's a long list and some differ only fractionally!)

But thanks to the guys at Gink and Gasoline, I learnt a new one today. The Belgian Cast.

Personally, when the wind is giving me gears over my casting side I've always just switched over to backhand casting and have had just as much success with distance and hookups (I think so anyway!). But it is interesting to see a new angle on dealing with a most annoying situation of having the wind blasting your casting ear.
