Newest-bie needs help learning to castArchived Message

Can anyone give me an hour lesson this week on how to cast for the price of only 6 bottles of beer?
I am on the Kapiti Coast, new to fishing, new to surfcasting, have some of the gear - keen and green
I have spent 2 hours "surfcasting" consisting of 1 hours and 50 mins of unscrambling line and all that for a combined castng distance of slightly further than I could throw the bloody line into the water. On youtube, it all looked so easy .... ;-)
If anyone could spare the time or knows someone who can spare the time, would really appreciate it. I think / hope I just need someone who won't laugh too much at my lack of basic knowledge and can tell/show me the basic stuff I am getting wrong. I do realise I will still have to practice after getting a lesson.
I am on holiday this week so during the day no problem.
