I started fishing at the age of 5, normally a bit of sea fishing on holiday or an
hour on the local brook resulting in some nice Chub! My attentions however soon turned to match fishing and at the age of around 9 I started entering local junior matches, winning quite a few! I started fishing a variety of venues into my late teens with individual and team success on commercial and natural venues, becoming the individual and team winner of the Bridgnorth Angling Championships on the River Severn being a highlight.
I love all types of fishing but tend to concentrate on the Midlands commercial circuit, fishing open matches throughout the summer months as well as a few festivals which have bought plenty of success including a 5th place finish in my first ever White Acres festival in 2019.
My Autumn and Winter campaign is based largely around team fishing, with my Drennan North West and Preston teammates where we have enjoyed lots of success at various Midlands fisheries over the last few years.
