i regularly go dwn the beach to practice casting, and have been planning to head through to one of the surfcasting meets....
but was wondering if there was any casting instructors in the SE scotland? if not, wheres the nearest?

Try the Scottish Federation of Sea Anglers, http://www.fishsea.co.uk/pages/sfsa.asp?dom=FishScotland and they might be able to help, they say they have coaches on this page, ask them to recommend one.

there is a scottish casting club, events will take place at wigtown S. W. scotland, there is 1 or 2 casting days per month, there also is free tuition if anyone requires it, joining fees are £10 per year and £6 per day, or you can come along for the day for £8.

Good to see some interest in Scotland...are you linked to your national governing body?
Bit concerned about your motto, though...it is not the way to start a beginner off!!

Happy Hogmanay!
