- A fly leg dips towards the rod leg but never crosses it. Is that sufficient to meet the current definition of a tailing loop?
- Which identifies a trailing loop rather than a tailing loop?
- True or false: casting arc and stroke length are two names for the same measurement.
- Which movement is translation?
- Does the definition of stop require the rod to remain completely motionless for a prolonged interval?
- Which term describes the lateral path of the rod tip during a casting stroke?
- True or false: timing and tempo are interchangeable in the current definitions.
- During the pause, the tip moves in the direction of the cast just made. What is this?
- True or false: every movement towards the next cast during the pause is automatically creep.
- Line is released after the stop and the amount outside the tip increases. Which term applies?
- True or false: a water mend takes place before the line lands.
- A cast transitions from a relatively horizontal back-cast plane into a more vertical forward plane without stopping. Which is the best identification?
- Which is Point P?
- True or false: the anchor consists only of the fly.
- Which is a blown anchor?
- True or false: the current roll-cast definition includes a substantial change of direction.
- What principally distinguishes the published roll-cast pickup from a standard roll cast?
- True or false: a double haul includes a pull on consecutive strokes and a return of the line hand towards the rod hand during the pause.
- What is overhang?
- Which sequence describes the diagnostic half of the six-step method?
- Which sequence describes the corrective half of the six-step method?
- True or false: the six-step method recommends correcting every visible fault at once.
- Which practice setup is explicitly recommended in the introductory PULD lesson?
- Wind blows towards a right-handed caster's casting arm. Which response addresses the published safety concern?
- What are the two principal functions of backing described in the equipment glossary?
- True or false: the tippet must always be a separately knotted piece rather than part of a leader.
- Which is finer in the standard X sequence?
- True or false: a line's total head weight must equal its first-30-foot weight.
- Which knot is especially associated with joining similar-diameter leader or tippet sections?
- Which is a common Albright application?
- True or false: double surgeon's knot and double fisherman's knot are the same knot.
- What is a common purpose of a perfection loop?
- How many correct answers does the official CI exam page require on its 36-question written test?
- Which list matches the subjects explicitly named on the official written-exam page?
- True or false: passing a self-written practice bank alone establishes readiness for the performance examination.
- True or false: failing the written test necessarily prevents taking the performance exam that day.
- Why is arc matched to rod bend rather than to rod material alone?
- What is the difference between a rod plane and a trajectory?
- Why can a straight tip path still fail to produce the intended straight fly leg?
- What should determine the pause when line speed changes?
- How do an in-plane loop and an out-of-plane loop differ?
- What is an underslung loop?
- How does slipping line differ from shooting line?
- Why might you slip line during a reach mend?
- Must a reach mend always be upstream?
- How do a D loop and a V loop differ?
- What is a piled or crashed anchor?
- What is a Bloody L anchor?
- How do skipped and blown anchors differ in timing?
- What is trunking?
- What is hooking in anchored casting?
- Why diagnose line, then rod, then body?
- How should you demonstrate a correction clearly?
- Why should a casting definition not automatically become your beginner teaching script?
- What does a PULD lesson teach beyond merely getting the fly off the water?
- Why should you investigate turnover when a sidearm cast misses laterally?
- Why can an air-resistant fly need heavier tippet than a slimmer fly of the same hook size?
- What happens if tippet is too light for a large, air-resistant fly?
- When is a surgeon's join useful, and what is one disadvantage compared with a blood knot?
- If you pass the written exam but fail the performance exam, what does the current FAQ say about retaining the written result?
