I have always been a very keen angler and nothing gives me more pleasure than sharing my knowledge and helping others to have a great day on the water.
I`m no stranger to competition angling having fished the first YYS~Fladen Weymouth International competition back in 2001, even winning the boat on one day. I have fished competitively in Europe and recreationally around the world. We were very proud to have been the top scoring boat on every day of the Home Internationals fished at Milford Haven in July 2016. If we can help our anglers to success, we will !
I am proud to have won the National Bass Festival in 2006 with my current lifetime best Bass of 15lb 6oz.
During that competition we set a record that has yet to be beaten, the top 3 Bass caught (all double figure fish) coming from the same boat, Excel 2.
Dave is a life member of The Angling Trust.
