PERSONAL

I have been fishing streams, rivers, ponds & lakes since the age of 5. My love of fishing continued throughout my teenage years & I started carp fishing at the tender age of 19. For nearly 30 years my fishing & bank time has been spent in the company of Derek Richie, Kev Knight, Dave Ball, Dougal Grey, Pete Springate,& Ronnie Buss to name a few & in that time you cant help but learn. In 1996 Heathrow Bait Service was born, this custom hook bait rolling cottage industry soon evolved to be a specialist specimen bait company with a host of products supplying bait to Europe's biggest names & as a result am now proud to be Chief Bait Consultant for Svendsen Sport. I have successfully fished a varied host of venues in all conditions, with my experience & all my ability I look forward in achieving your fishing adventure goals.
