|
|
It seems that there are a few people who would like to learnt to cast a fly rod. Now would be a good time to start, you then have a little time before the bass season proper starts to hone your new found skills.
If it is possible to find a nice grass area on say Hayling Island I would be happy to give some instruction for a few people. |

Ill definately benefit from some lessons.I cast what i think is ok but no doubt ive got some bad habits that need correcting.
Plenty of parks around to practice on.

Very kind of you to offer your time and help, MRAJ.
I can only single haul at the moment and would like to be able to double haul if you can help with that.
I'm out of action just now with a bad shoulder but should be fighting fit by January and would be keen to meet up.
Cheers

I am in negotiations with a view to coming down on Sunday (23rd) to start about 10.30, I thought the grass at the back of the Inn on the Beach would be OK. Negotiations are now complete. It might have to be put off if it is howling with rain, no fun trying in that ! !
If you would like to come please pm me with a contact number in case the weather is too bad. |

Its something, I'd like to have a go at but the 2 problems I have are that I don't have a fly rod and I'm generally unable to do Sundays.
