I've always had a bit of an obsession with water and anything that resides in it. I first started fishing when I was around 13 years old and like most carp anglers I started out course fishing for anything and everything I could catch. From trout to roach, if it had gills and a mouth I wanted to catch it! I caught my first carp from Whelford pools when I was around 15 ( after about 5x24 hour blanks specifically targeting carp) and from that moment on I was 100% converted. Living in Swindon, Hinders was always my local fishing shop and I have used their bait almost exclusively since I first started and long before I became a part of Team Hinders. I jumped at the chance to test their Nut 365 and have never looked back. Planning on targeting some new pb' s this year and Hinders will definitely play a major role in this!
