E1.3 Although the principle of conservation of momentum explains much of
the process of fly-casting, there does not exist a comprehensive scientific
explanation of how a fly-fisher uses the small backward and forward mo-
tion of the fly rod to cast an almost weightless fly lure long distances (the

current world-record is 236 ft). The fly lure is attached to a short invisible
leader about 15-ft long, which is in turn attached to a longer and thicker
Dacron line. The objective is cast the fly lure to a distant spot with dead-
eye accuracy so that the thicker part of the line touches the water first
and then the fly gently settles on the water just as an insect might.
