Favourite Technique / Species / Fishing Style
Drift spinning soft plastics for snapper, sight casting for bream and fishing flooded water for trout.
Angling Inspiration
Both my father and grandfather had myself and my siblings fishing from a very young age. As far as lure fishing/tournament fishing I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Andrew Krushka, when I started getting serious about fishing with artificial baits he was the one to lead me in the right direction.
My Local (Favourite Fishing Spot)
Anderson Bay, Bridport
Why I Fish
For the love of the outdoors. You just never know what the day might bring. It’s the little things like dolphins popping up or catching a new species for me that make fishing as special as it is.
