ABOUT:
I started fishing with my grandad when I was 6 years old. A few years later I started fishing junior matches and it went from there! I don’t like team fishing, as I like to go to venues and matches that I choose.
I’ve been fortunate to learn from the very best in all styles of fishing from float to feeder and being able to travel out with the Barnsley team to international events like the World Club Championships helped me understand the international side of our sport. Feeder fishing has been something I’ve always been passionate about, particularly on rivers catching smaller fish like roach and dace.
