Julian Grattidge
Julian Grattidge works alongside Elton on Anglers’ Net, a full-time role that allows him to talk about fishing all day! In addition Julian runs his own carp website dedicated to carp anglers “oop’ north” and also edits a monthly carp column in North West Angler. When he's not fishing (or talking about it), Julian often likes to get his 'fix' of adrenalin from his other passion, wome....fast cars. Yes, Julian is a keen rally fan and general admirer of all things four-wheeled and fast (particularly Subaru Impreza’s). He's not just an armchair spectator, either, and has been known to take a seat in a rally car from time to time and he also regularly helps competing friends as support crew. As you'll see from Julian's articles, he is an accomplished carp angler and has spent many years in pursuit of his quarry. Although his main target are the big carp, Julian welcomes specimen fish of any species on the right tackle.
If you're interested in any form of advertising on Anglers' Net, drop Julian a line.
