John,
From the video footage here, it looks like you are casting up current (to the right) which is where your retrieve begins. However camera makes it look as though your bucktail is down current (on your left) before your retrieve is complete. It looks like you are reeling in against the current near the end of each cast and in fact it seems that this is when the the majority of your bites come. I know the lens has some distortion effect, so I am hoping you can comment on this a bit; is this really what is happening here?
Thanks for your time and these great video tutorials!
