Good job then. A couple of comments and that is try to get someone more experienced or even better a real coach to help you along. A few dollars spent now will save much frustration on the water.

You can find some nice instructors that are qualified here: http://www.fedflyfishers.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4465

Barring a good instructor there are some good DVDs available. Many times these DVDs can even be found in you local library for free rental. Another good source is YouTube. Just do a search under fly casting lessons. I tend to better watching something than just reading about it. If you have questions, you have found a good board. It's always nice seeing someone with lots of enthusiasm.
