About the Author:

Dominic Garnett is hailed as 'Britain's most promising young angling writer'; (Angling Times). He caught his first canal fish, a rudd, as a small boy sitting in the beer garden of a waterside pub. He is just as keen today – although you might find the cheap fibreglass pole and pint glass of maggots replaced by anything from a match rod to specimen or even fly tackle.

Renowned for his lucid, entertaining writing, Dominic is an angling all-rounder with over 200 articles to his name in the UK and abroad, from Angling Times to Fly Fishing & Fly Tying. His aim is to put the fun and soul back into fishing, as well as to instruct. His convention-busting adventures have also featured on the Sky Sports and National Geographic TV channels, while his debut hardback Flyfishing for Coarse Fish became a bestseller.

He is also a keen photographer and in that capacity works for many magazines. He lives near Exeter.

Andy Mytton is a fanatical lure angler based in Dorset. His innovative, light tackle approach has accounted for a spectacular array of fresh and saltwater species throughout the UK and abroad, as well as TV appearances on BT and Sky Sports. On the competition and events scene he has also fished far and wide, representing England at international level and winning the Zandermasters title.
