Hi Rick,

just wanted to thank you for the lesson on the river yesterday. There is a lot of information to take in as a beginner, and you trim the fat and get to the meat of it so to speak and simplify it. I now feel confident enough to hit attempt casting at the river without looking like a complete klutz. It was a privilege to have such a pro as an instructor. If it all goes sideways I know who to call. Sorry about the wind knots.

By the way, you look younger in person than on the website.
