LOT 35

A day with Chris Holley on the Warks Avon.

Chris Holley is a well know and respected Dorset based angler. Chris grew up in South London where he spent his early teens fishing for carp on the pits and lakes of Kent but his real love is for running water. With over 30 years experience on rivers, he specialises in the pursuit of barbel and chub with over 200 double figure barbel to his credit and chub to 7lb 10oz.

Chris has been classified by the media as a traditionalist spending the majority of his time on the bank preferring to adopt a roving approach with conventional baits to search out his prey.

He has been involved in many angling clubs and organisations over the years, being a founder member of both The Barbel society and Barbel Study Group, carrying out several studies on the species and their habitat. However, nowadays Chris spends much of his time teaching with tuition days and presentations to fellow anglers.
