Adam has been a carp angler since 1985 and has worked in the angling industry since 1996.
Between ‘96 and 2012 he headed product departments for three of the leading tackle companies and since ‘12 has operated as a self employed angling guide and tutor.
He has been writing regularly in all of the leading magazines since 1999, and in late 2018 brought out his first book, ‘Rolling in the Deep’.
Adam’s angling is necessarily very varied due to the client element, which has taken him to a huge number of different waters across the southern and middle UK. His personal fishing tends to favour very low stock waters, chasing rarely caught carp. Most of his fishing is boilie orientated, but he’s also a passionate floater angler and opportunist margin stalker.
Adam’s wealth of knowledge of the industry and all things carp means he’s a formidable asset to the TA consultant list and brand.
