I have over 40 years experience of game angling on waters varying from the chalk streams of the South to the rain fed rivers and streams of Northern England and the Scottish Borders. Pride of place though must be given to a lifetime’s experience on the waters of Shropshire and Wales, the areas in which I have always lived. I have taken salmon, sea-trout, trout and grayling on both fly and bait, aquiring considerable knowledge along the way, which I hope to pass on to you.

Always involved in other aspects of the sport, I have held the position of Editor for the Grayling Society & the Flydresser’s Guild and have been local branch organiser for those same bodies, plus the Salmon & Trout Association. For many years I have been a guest speaker and flydressing demonstrator at various angling organisations.

These experiences provided the opportunity to learn much more about our sport than just angling, and this knowledge improves the level of service that we offer to you.

As with other sports, it is the up and coming youngsters who will help to secure the future and thankfully, a growing number are coming to us for instruction. I can assure parents that the backgrounds of both myself and colleagues have been checked by the Police (CRB), and that we are accredited to work with young people. We are also trained First Aiders.
