Keith,
To let you know we arrived home safe and sound, if not
tired out and thoroughly contented, after the spey
casting tuition we booked with yourself on the River
Annan.
It was the best birthday present Steven has had. We
arrived home and he was out with the rod putting into
practice what you had shown us on the day.
As an elderly person!!!!!!???? I was worried that I may
not be able to cope with this new way of fishing, and
although it took me a little longer to master the basics
I can assure you that your patience, practical
demonstration, and hands on approach coupled with your
empathetic teaching skills were first class.
Although we primarily booked for the casting lessons,
your all round knowledge of the Annan river system, and
how to fish the different stretches of water, coupled
with tackle and initial setup advice made the day both
interesting and enjoyable.
We will be back up in a couple of weeks time to try and
bag that first salmon and I shall ring you to book
accommodation, and see if you will be available to
accompany my son and myself.
Once again Keith thanks for a great experience.
Mike and Steven Cook.

Having retired in 2002 after more than thirty years service with the
Metropolitan Police Criminal Investigation Department and Specialist
Operations, Keith decided to relocate to an area he has
fished for over nine years and now lives in S.W. Scotland. A keen fly
fisher for over twenty five years, his love for the Atlantic salmon has
led to him to specialise in teaching Spey Casting to several hundred
people from all walks of life.
