When I was 23 I decided life was too short to be stuck in a job I didn't like so I gave up my job, packed up my Holden Kingswood full of camping and fishing gear and when on a hiatus to Cape Runaway to suss out the monster kingfish lurking around. I found my Birth Mother, gave up smoking and got fit. After this trip and a number of far north trips I started running landbased fishing charters and selling wholesale fishbait in Wellington.
My retail fishing shop in Rongotai has been going now for 28yrs as well as the wholesale bait distribution business (a few years longer). Im still running boat fishing charters from Mana as well as local surfcasting trips and tuition.

Flat White Slim and the Blind Eels
When I'm not fishing I like playing music with old and new friends. My Favourite music is the blues and occasionally I get to indulge with like minded individuals at functions and establishments around wellington and beyond.
FWS and the Blind Eels generally play Blues fishing based music and have recorded a handfull of songs including - fishing on my mind, fishing blues, cape brett blues, moki boogie, baby please dont go, bring out the boogie in me and got my berley working.
If you would like to have a jam or a band going, give me a call.....
