It's daft question time boys and girls.
When I cast, my rod (a Bloke XL50 #7) doesn't make any noise at all but I notice that most other angler's rods make a whooshing or swishing noise when they cast.
Should there be a whooshing noise when one casts? Is the noise a sign of a good or bad caster? Is it just due to the type or action of the rod? Am I going mad?

Less power, better technique and better timing is what you've got, not a rod that won't whoosh. ;D Make your Bloke "AVE IT" and it'll whoosh like a good un. |

I wish I could get my mate to cast like you. It sounds like some poor sod getting 6 of the best, with me doing the teeth sucking...............................birdsnest.
