    Walter & Group...

    [GH]  Ally Gowans answers the question on "line launch".  Note his attachment.

    Hi Gordy,
     
    Your descriptions I’m sure mean pretty much the same as my “line launch”.
     
    You have previously seen the attached picture. It indicates the direction of line launch. Until then the tip ring was pulling the line, then the tip ring direction changed and the fly line continued forward due to its momentum. None of the commotion that occurred after that made a positive contribution to the cast; these later events are simply undesirable artifacts.
     
    Best wishes,
    Ally Gowans

    Yes, indeed.  Yours is more exact in that it shows the point of line launch in addition to the direction.  My reference showed the direction but not the point.
