Mike Gerritsen has been recruited as the first international member of the Greys Carp Academy.
Holland based, Mike started coarse fishing aged 7 years old, and has been Carp fishing since he was 13, landing his personal best Common Carp in Holland at 18.5kg and abroad 22.6kg Common.
Mike enjoys specimen fishing and prefers smaller overgrown lakes with a chance for float or surface fishing and has caught Carp with a float up to 16kg.
Mike said;
“Above everything, I enjoy the environment I am in whilst fishing and meeting people that share the same interest. Within fishing, you can learn something new every day.”
Greys Carp Academy co-ordinator, Iain McGeary said;
“It is a great acquisition for us to have Mike involved within the Academy set up. Mike possesses a wealth of industry and product knowledge and will hopefully be able to incorporate this into our product development and feedback processes. We are very much looking forward to working with Mike and having him in attendance at numerous shows and events both in the UK and further afield throughout Europe”.
