Stevie MunnId just like to say well done to Stevie Munn (hardy caster) who successfully passed his APGAI qualification on Thursday.
Stevie is a super lad and here we have one of the countries best casters right on our doorstep. I had a wee lesson with him last year and for the money it was well worth every penny. At that time he was £25 an hour but trust me it was the best £25 i ever spent. If you think about it Tiger Woods is at the top of his game and he still goes to a pro to practise his swing putting etc. So we can all do with even just 1 session with a casting instructor.
Again well done Stevie.

CastingI definitely intend to invest in a lesson after I get this winter pike fishing done. Set me up for the new season. Do you do lessons up at Straid Stevie or is it somewhere else?

I would be up for a bit of Casting instruction
Maybe if a few of us on the forum could arrange to be
at Straid on the same day and book an Hour each?
Any Takers!

Stevie MunnHas a date been set yet? Because I am pike fishing in winter a date in March would suit me (no point in having lessons and then forgetting what Ive been taught). If this doesnt suit the rest of you Im quite happy to arrange with Stevie myself if thats ok.

syd i arranged with Stevie for Sunday the 16th March for myself and big Andy as he`s comming over on the St Patricks weekend and Fossil is going to try and make it that Sunday too if he`s not working,,,if that date suits you too we could make a day of it at Straid and take in a bit of fishing at the same time,,,,let me know mate and i can speak to Stevie so he knows how many he`s got that day,,,,,,,,,

lads looks like i can do it i can teach a few at a time if you get more, but its always best for me to look at your casting and then fix the odd mistake or show an easy way to do the cast. anyway it will be good fun i might be able to make it Saturday, Sunday and even Monday , but not sure Sunday, defiantly, but not too early on Sunday morning.
Im just back from England i was fishing on the Test and trying Hardys new rods, im Knackerd,
