What’s a middle-aged bloke with a beard doing on something as trendy as blogger? Good question. I’ll try and answer that.
I’m a retired copper and in order to retain what is left of my sanity I have qualified as a fishing coach. I’ve been fishing for over forty years so it’s great to be able to pass on all that knowledge and enthusiasm to a younger generation.
As coarse fishing is a very varied sport, I also coach more experienced anglers to help them broaden their experience. For example, someone might have been fishing for carp on stillwaters (lakes) all their lives. They are delighted to be introduced to the joys of float fishing on the Wasing Estate on the River Kennet in Berkshire.
I’ve been coaching for over three years now and always try and take photos for my clients. Some of these can be seen on my website and more will appear on the blog in future.
