The 4th October 2014 saw the first grand final of the British Lure Angling Championships, fished at Chew Valley. Sky TV were present all day and here is the result. As televised on Sky Sports on Friday 10th October. Andy Ford has done us all proud. Thanks Fordy!
It was June 2012 the last time LRF was featured on Sky Sport’s Tight Lines TV show. All credit to Ben Field for getting the opportunity once again and raising the profile of our sport. This time around uber angling celeb Keith Arthur joined Ben for some early season LRFing down in Brixham. Not sure about the dodgy mush in the hoody…
Pics from an unforgettable day with the Tight Lines crew down in Brixham. Always happy to be on fish catching duties. Got to meet Keith Arthur in person – legend! Thanks to Ben Field for inviting me. An absolute privilege.
Dan and I had the pleasure of fishing with Andy Ford today, on my local stretch of the Kennet and Avon. You may know Andy as the enthusiastic, roving reporter from ‘Tight Lines’ on Sky Sports. Even if you don’t subscribe to Sky you can still watch Andy’s excellent features online. They cover literally all facets and disciplines of our sport – yes, even LRF! In fact, Andy has just launched a new website where he plans to catalogue all the excellent footage he has captured over the years. You can find it here – https://stourfisher.wordpress.com/ – check it out!
A real landmark in the history of LRF in the UK. Andy Ford (left) and Ben Field give an LRF run down on Sky Sports TV – watch the video here
