Angling Experience:

I first started fishing in 1970 with family and friends. On leaving school at 16 I joined the Army and moved abroad continuing to fish in both Germany and the UK. After leaving the Army and returning to the UK I continued to fish competing on local match circuits and with various Angling clubs.

From this I progressed to voluntary coaching with local groups and attained my level 1 and 2 coaching qualifications with the Angling Development Board.

I have coached school courses and individuals of all ages and abilities and pride myself on my communication skills and my ability to pass on my experience in an easily understood manner.
