Overview

The Redington Form Game is a short casting practice rod for working on your fly cast away from the water. Redington made it for beginners and experienced casters alike, as a way to tighten up the casting stroke and improve form. The 50" graphite rod breaks down into 2 pieces, so it is easy to toss in a bag or suitcase and practice wherever you are.

Unlike yarn practice rods, the Form Game casts a real fly line: a custom tapered RIO practice line weighted to match the rod, so you feel the rod load, watch your loops form and work on your timing much as you would with a full-size outfit. It comes in a storage case with descriptions of casting games that make backyard practice more fun.
