It’s all the action from the 2024 Sea Angling Classic, an international fishing event combining a major sea angling competition, conservation, and environmental initiatives, education, and research, while introducing a whole new generation to the sport of angling. It took place from Wednesday to Sunday, 20-23 June 2024, out of Premier Marina Port Solent, and offered the largest prize table of any event of its kind in the UK – worth in excess of £100,000 including a fabulous fully rigged Extreme 646 Game King boat and SBS trailer. Find out who won it…
Professional pest controller Daniel Maddock has lost the tools of his trade and denied, for the moment at least, permission to own another. After applying for a firearms certificate in January 2024, because his boss wanted him to start taking on deer management jobs, he had a home visit by two officers from Police Scotland. He thought they were there to assess his security. Instead, they had come to charge him for ‘lying’ on his medical records.
Scottish pest controller Daniel Maddock expected the police wanted to check his gun security. Imagine his surprise when they charged him with lying on his certificate application, because they appear to have muddled the work ‘physiotherapy’ with ‘psychotherapy’. He tells his story. We are at the Sea Angling Classic 2024, the richest prize in UK sport fishing, plus Ian Hodge talks clay guns, and Terry Doe is out to teach James Marchington how to shoot his airgun straighter. David has the news on the news stump, We are raffling Hoddy’s dogfood, and James brings you the best hunting videos on YouTube in Hunting YouTube. It’s all in this week’s #FieldsportsBritain
