Angling

- By Wesley Shrubsole

It is always nice to hear that a local angler has been rewarded for his efforts in the sport and at the moment any good news is very welcome!

St Mary’s Bay sea angler Dave Wood-Brignall, who is the holder of the shore caught halibut record at 163lbs and also the redfish record, has been contracted to tackle giant Shimano. Sponsorshi­p in our sport is very tough to secure and this is one of the best! Wood-Brignall is an angling guide in Norway and hopes to beat his own records this year.

Let us all hope that travel restrictio­ns are eased and we can all enjoy our sport in the year to come.
