Story
60 Fish in 60 Days
As I turn 60 in July 2020, I have set myself a quest to catch 60 species / types of fish from UK freshwaters and the sea in 60 days. At the same time I am trying to raise as much as I can for three charities that use fishing to support ex and current service personal, children and young adults, and disabled folk who unsupported would find it difficult to go fishing. These three charities (all registered with the Charities Commission) do great work and are not always supported to levels of other better known charities so I am pleased to try to give something back to a pastime that has given me enormous pleasure for over 50 years.

4 years agoWell I have reached the fish target but will carry on to see how many I can get in the 60 days. New goal is 70 but we'll see..... The fund raising is also going well. Nearly half way there. Thanks to all those generous folk who have donated in these challenging times. These charities are also starved of income so need this more than ever. Hugh.

Waters in and around UK.
Born in London in July 1960, I started fishing by catching perch on canals but throughout my life I have been fortunate enough to fish all over the world. I will be covering all my own costs - so ALL donations less any J Giving fees, WILL go to my three chosen causes.
