About Me

Ever since catching my first fish in Swansea marina I was, excuse the pun ‘hooked’. Since then I have fished for Sea, Coarse, Game and Predatory fish alike and intend on continuing to do so. Having a family who loved fishing meant that there was never an angling trip far off and any advice I needed was on my door step.

Although sea fishing was initially my favoured pastime, I began to coarse fish more regularly, focusing primarily on silver fish using the pole.  I also joined Glamorgan Anglers where after some practice I began to fish in their matches as well as the Port Talbot docks winter league. But that was a long time ago, now I am just happy get out and wet a line!

Fishing is something I have hugely enjoyed since a young age and from living in Wales, then West Yorkshire and now in the South West, an area that has many coarse and sea venues to offer, catching a fish is something that excites me more than ever!

This website is a way of documenting my catches and experiences as well as trying to provide the reader with helpful, useful and interesting information on tried venues. I will also be writing about equipment and stockists, along with any events or topical fishing news both regionally and nationally.
