Shooting and fishing have been constants throughout my life, starting when I was about 8 with a catapult, air guns from about 12, then shotguns and rifles from 16 on, ran my own syndicate shoot near Melton Mowbray for several years and worked as part time keeper for the syndicate.
Bred and trained Springer Spaniels as gun dogs, bred Lurcher's and Saluki's for show and coursing,
member of the Saluki coursing club of Great Britain for many years.
Enjoyed helping out as a beater for many estates and farms around Notts Lincs borders in the 70's.
Have hunted and fished in UK, New Zealand, Spain and France (even had my own carp lake in France for 5 years ).
Most recently I have developed an interest in touring around UK fishing lake complexes where I can stay in my little camper van and enjoy my passion for fishing

Hate - cold wet days, Politics , religion and missing clay's and pigeons ( which happens far more often than I care to admit.).
