Brought up with the River Torne on my door step I have been captivated by specimen fish from a young age. Chasing elusive chub and guiding stick floats between banks of streamer weed, was where my passion for angling evolved. As I grew older and saw photographs of my dad cradling Tidal Trent common's it was this River that would further ignite my passion, targeting its specimen barbel. Over the following years I became totally immersed in pursuing fish of specimen proportions. Fast forward to present day and my targets have changed to suit family life, challenge my watercraft and maintain the passion and buzz for big fish.

​

'Angling Collective' is simply a digital format for collectively recording my captures, photographs, experiences and thoughts whilst enjoying my angling.

 

Feel free to leave a comment, like a photograph, share the passion.
