So, every year Forres Angling Association run free casting tuition on two Sunday mornings. I attended this Sunday, on the Findhorn at Forres
A couple of the tutors are Ian Gordon and Tom Brown.
I went along as i don't swing a double hander very often, if at all, during an average season however with an up-and-coming trip I thought I had better !
What did I learn ?
1) I can still 'circle' C cast
2) 'downgrading' my rod to a Shakey Oracle Scandi and the line to an Airflo Rage compact was still a great move - even an idiot like me can get a line out
3) I still don't like a single spey - I'll stick to sustained anchors thank you !
4) My waders that suffered the mouse attack on the stocking feet in Assynt and that I sealed with aquasure don't let in water - result !
5) My wading boots that were a little too big ( having changes my neoprene waders that have smaller feet !) - well that problem was solved thanks to the sub-£30 purchase of some orvis wet wading neoprene socks. I can put these over the top of my waders, this making the boots a better fit
so, all good
