WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO

become a international angler most match anglers put some time in during the week on there tackle and then perhaps fish a match three times a week
i was talking to keef last night about this and keef along with bill are two very wise men and know more about the sport of match fishing than most.
keef said to me to become a international angler at the level we are today on a percentage he thought 5% family 5% business and 80% fishing now that is some commitment for very little financial reward from the sport .yet most of the top anglers will say its not about the money
we also said that England as a country holds around 200 top anglers of which 50 put this sort of dedication into there fishing
these angler are that good because they can read the conditions and situations the quickest, its not always the tackle and rigs that are Superior its knowing when and how to catch the next fish when to top up and when to take that late gamble.how much time do you think match angling should take up
ive shot it 4 kids and business
but keefs final words of encouragement was name a sport that you can compete against England's finest anglers at the next peg
it puts to sleep a lot of this "your a drawbag,another flier,your bang on again"
one other word of wisdom
fish spend more time fighting to survive in there own environment than checking out your rigs and saying thats nice i'l eat that one or its the weekend time to feed .if only it was that simple
how much time do you give a week
