Compliments on Glenda's tuition
Hi Glenda…….just
a brief word of thanks for the coaching session…I thoroughly enjoyed it . As a
former Instructor in another sport permit me to say that there are many people
who KNOW how to do things……others who know how to SHOW you how to do it……others
still, who can TELL you how to do it…..but few have your gift of being able to
TEACH others how to do it……..I know I not only enjoyed the session, as I
said, but very much benefited from the couple of hours…….hopefully I can put it
into practice !

Hi Glenda & Ian,
Just wanted to say thank you very much for a hugely enjoyable day yesterday.
Everything about it was run so professionally and to such a high standard I
couldn't recommend it highly enough. And, Glenda, my thanks to you for decoding
what seemed to me to be a complicated and mystical process into something that I
have understanding and confidence in and I can't wait now to get back out onto
the river to start catching fish! I look forward to visiting Blackwater Lodge
again soon.

Many thanks for your prompt email and the excellent lesson which I thoroughly
enjoyed.
I have spent the last two nights casting continuously in my sleep and
by day have been asked by others as to why I am waving my arms around in such a
manner!
I think that you are underestimating yourself and flattering me when you write
of a “gift” for the real gift is not with the pupil who can pick up
something under instruction,
rather it lies with the teacher who can convey the
information in a manner that is clear, makes sense and in a way that gives a
greater understanding,
but then you are the number one in the world so…..
Thank you for including the main points/faults that I have to watch out for, I
think that everything is covered and come February I will have no excuse for not
being able to cover “that” fish.

Thanks to Glenda for a fabulous insight into the art of casting a fly. I am
sure the many tips I received will greatly enhance my enjoyment of fly
fishing.

Very many thanks for making my recent double handed casting tuition so
interesting and enjoyable.
With your attention, I felt both very confident and
that I achieved good progress with a new method.
You made the learning
process relevant and fun. I am pining for the Blackwater,
so have booked to
return at the end of September for some follow up tuition and hopefully,
productive fishing.
PS I will remember to give line next time I get a take on
the fly!
