ABOUT: 

Roger has been fishing since he was just three years old and team fishing for over 40 years. He was originally with Quorn AS and is now a key member of Drennan Leicester squad. He has also fished seven World Championships with the highly successful England Veterans squad. In that time he helped the squad win three team golds and two silver medals. 

Over the past couple of seasons Roger has turned more towards commercial fisheries such as Lake View, Tunnel Barn Farm and the Glebe Fishery. However, he grew up fishing the River Soar and Loughborough Canal and natural water fishing will always remain his first love.
