Hi Marlinazul the next casting heat is sunday 25th april, i think its the last sunday of the month, that and the successive dates for all the casting heats of the year were posted by dbrock a few floors above on this thread one or two of the dates are subject to change although paddy will post any such change a couple of weeks in advance, as far as i know the april date is ok your very welcome to come down and get some tuition, if you have a friend or two to share the journey with ya-all the better, there'll be plenty of us around to get you sorted and give any help you need to improve your style, everyone has come down has saw immediate returns with some big increases in distance always a certainty there's a small fee for day casters of ten euro but the craic is free
