PERSONAL
Unlike my father I am relatively new to the public eye of fishing & admit I have a lot to learn regarding the political correctness of our sport. My fishing background has been thorough, as a young boy Dad was my fishing hero, I remember most his fishing sheds, like a prize hoard of pirate’s treasure, regularly pondered over & moved from pillar to post. Watching him fondle with rigs & his secret bait recipes sowed seeds of desire & aspiration to love the sport of fishing like he does. It was when I caught my first carp that an awakening inside registered big fish, of course I had seen pictures of big fish but thought that only happened when you were older! I started to accompany my father at weekends from the age of 11 on his fishing sessions to Frencham ponds in England, so that was the start & the end who knows? I was not schooled nor primed for a career in fishing, my first taste of guiding brought about the pebble rig & since then my catch records & fishing accounts have had some call me a God of Cat fishing! Well maybe one day? I suppose to some I make fishing look easy but then time casts no shadows on ability. I spend more time on the bank than in the house; my televisions have been made redundant & just like my Dad I Eat, Drink & Sleep for fishing.
