Broadcaster and Amwell Magna Fishery President
I have the great honour of serving as President of the club. I’m not sure I make a very good president as I can’t keep my eyes off the water when I’m there and am endlessly distracted from presidential duties by mating mayflies and rising wildies; I’m first and foremost an angler and find myself in excellent company at Amwell Magna, surrounded by folk who’d rather be fishing than doing anything else. Although I’ve been fishing at the club for some ten years now I still have to pinch myself every time I unlock the metal gate and step inside our little fishy world, a world richly enhanced by the work of river keeper Martin while last season’s bumper catch returns are proof that this historic club is flowing very nicely into the future.
