00:01

My name's Kevin Patterson and I'm a guide on the River Tweed, like.

00:05

We're standing here down in the Borders.

00:06

We're just outside Melrose, which is a famous town.

00:09

Over the back of us, here, we've got the Eildons, one of the most famous landmarks of the Borders.

00:14

It's three hills, and the myth is that Merlin the magician split one hill into three, and

00:19

it left the two hills at the back of us which you can see. 

00:22

The weather's never good...

00:23

They always say, in the Borders, if the mist's on the Eildon's we never get the good weather

00:27

and, as you can see today, there's no sunshine It's a typical Scottish Borders day!

00:33

Fantastic!

00:35

Tell me a little bit about Tweed Guide - about what you guys do.

00:38

Tweed Guides, that's just been set up...it's about in its third year now, like. 

00:41

And we bring people over, from all walks of life, and we bring them fishing anywhere they

00:45

want to go.

00:46

Um...we use the Tweed, we use all the tributaries of the Tweed, and we just want to get people

00:50

together to have fun and enjoy fishing...together.

00:54

And uh, about how long does it take a guy to get used to like if these guys here trained a bit last night. But what does it typically take even a novice to start enjoying fly fishing?
