    Walter & Group..........

    Here  are three more of David Diaz's TEACHING CASES :-

    1.)  Deal with this problem.

    A student presents himself as experienced and the recipient of instruction from a famous teacher or casting hero.  What he requests is advanced instructlion, working on his haul for very long distance. 

                                                                                         BUT

    His fundamentals are terrible; loop control does not exist ... he doesn't even point one foot at the target.

    How do you return him to the real problem ?  Remember, he paid for big league teaching.

    2.) A male prospect in his 30's is going to Key West for 4 days to fish for bones, tarpon and permit, departing in 2 weeks .....his trip of a lifetime.

    Although he has 10 years experience fishing for rainbows on large Western rivers, the brand-new, luxury grade 9 wt. with matching rreel and floating line feels desperately awkward to him and he wrenches his casting arm shoulder every time he uses it.  He wants a single one-hour lesson before he goes.

    a.   What do you concentrate on ?

    b.   Why ?

    3.)  In one month, four friends are going trout fishing in the American West.  One has some experience, is past beginner but not by much.  The other three are, " below beginner".   They all want to acquire the skills necessary for success and satisfaction.

    What is your suggested program for this group ?
