If you are interested in having a go at fishing or whether you are already an experienced angler who would like to try something different, the lakes and coastline around Torbay and its neighbours offer some great opportunities for sport, especially if you know where and when is likely to produce.
 
As an Angling Trust Tridiscipline Level 2 Sea, Coarse and Fly Fishing Coach and Coach Educator with over forty years experience of fishing in the South West, it is my great pleasure to share that knowledge and experience with other anglers, be they families, individuals or groups from school or work. I am also, amongst other things, a writer and a qualified teacher with over twenty five years of teaching in schools.

Although my particular passion is for light tackle angling, which produces the most sensational sport across all three disciplines, I thoroughly enjoy all forms of fishing and have, so far, written ten books upon the subject. My latest two are 'Fly Fishing - the Tug on the Line', an introduction to fly fishing for trout and some of the most popular coarse and marine species, and 'Make Fishing Fun - Tips, Trips, Techniques and Tackle', a tridiscipline book looking at highly exciting methods of angling taken from all three branches of the sport. I have also written extensively for a number of magazines, including Sea Angler, which I have just started writing for (March, 2024).
