Maxine McCormick wins Gold at World Fly Casting Championship

Postby fly addict » August 21st, 2016, 10:38 am

Maxine McCormick who is just 12 years old wins the gold medal at the World Fly Casting Championships in Estonia. Earlier this month she beat Steve Rajeff in the Trout Fly Competition. The scary part is she has only been fly casting for 3 years. You are going to hear more about this girl in the years to come!

Maxine has been wiping out NorCal casters for years. A true child prodigy. Dad ain't too shabby also.

Amazing! I've been casting for twelve years and can still do amazing tailing loops that tie triple bowlines!
