I've been happily married to Maria (Mrs M) for 26 of my 54 years.

Most of my fishing has been done in the SE of England. More and more it seems to revolve around commercial fisheries,though my first love is to run a stick float down a nice stretch of river. The last few years have seen me fishing Malc Doyle's Jinx series on various bagging waters such as Rolf's, Drayton and Stockton round the country, finishing 2nd overall and winning The Pairs with Steve Wilson in 2005 and finishing 3rd overall in 2006. I also fish with my club - Marsh AC. I'm involved with various websites, noteably Maggotdrowning.com since 2001 and Disabled Angler.co.uk and it's fund raising efforts since August 2005.
