Profile: As an Angler and Angling Coach. I have been an avid fisherman from the age of four, my fascination and passion for the sea was ignited by my Dad, who first took me fishing off the Marine Drive in Scarborough for Codling, Dabs and an odd Pollock if we were particularly lucky. A twenty five year career in the Armed Forces saw me travel and fish all around the world, for everything that swims, but the hallowed ground of the North East Yorkshire Coast has always stolen my heart.

My first "wrecking" trip took place on my birthday in 1992 and having ben told the stories by other Whitby anglers, of boats almost sinking because of the weight of Cod they had caught, had me a quivering wreck on the day of departure. Two hours later, when I was vomiting like there was no tomorrow and sliding around the deck in fish slime and puke, things didn't seem so great!! However, that was just the start of things to come, and I have boat fished the area around Whitby extensively for most of my adult life.

I will never be found lacking, and my passion is for all anglers to catch fish. Over the years, on the majority of boats, I have seen little guidance given to the first time anglers (apart from, drop it down there, and wind it up when you get a bite). Everyone starts from somewhere; so if you want to start your sea fishing journey with Sea Urchin, I can guarantee that you will get as much, or as little assistance as you require. We all have to start somewhere.
