Fishing has been my passion since a very early age. This desire of fishing in me comes from my grandfather who started in 1965 with traditional fishing and became a professional with time. I learned a lot from him and my father (as they say, we never stop learning). It is now more than 15 years that I have been in this field and I have worked with clients from various countries.
