Describe yourself:
It was when I was 8 years old that my grandparents first took me fishing with a small selection of lures and a small fibre glass rod.  From this moment, my passion for fishing grew into what it is today.  When I reached the age of 17 I devoted my fishing time to catching Carp.  Nowadays I fish all types of water including; rivers, gravel pits, reservoirs and mountain lakes.  I like to keep my rigs simple yet very strong, the main reason for this is that I am very meticulous about the quality of my rig components, ensuring that I use only the best!
