Les Austin is Church of England minister who fishes and writes for GFF

1 commentsBy

Les is a Church of England minister who lives in South West England, surrounded by salmon fishing (which he can't afford) and river fishing for small trout, which he attempts to catch with a tiny brook rod.

The Devon coastline also has Sea Bass which provide him with hours of pleasure while his wife, Nan, walks the dog along the beach. When the dog and Les are at home, he clips hair off the dog to tie salt-water shrimp flies...

He is looking forward to teaching his grandchildren to flyfish, and trying to catch mullet on fly.

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
