Of the more well known i would go for Mick Brown. Perhaps not one of the best technical anglers but the joy on his face when he cracks a technique or catches something special is honest as well as infective.

Jack ....yes he would always be in the top 10 without a doubt...great talker and decent angler...but when he had a series on tv 10 years or so ago,he was hounded by the press because it included field sports like otter hunts/fox hunts /and mink hunting/ also a bit of shooting....the public were to upset to see it so it was took off our screens sadly

Didn't the Go FIshing with John Wilson series start off as Go Fishing with Jack Charlton?

I have a vague recollection of this. Or was it a completely different series?

Hugh Miles and the anglers he puts into his programs.

The 6 Passion For Angling programs were and still are fantastic. They are quite sad really, because my 2 favourite episodesportray the big roach in rivers and the clear seasons we used to have. Sadly they are both disappearing, perhaps the 2 are connected.

Can't wait for his new programs to be released.

No Matt.

It has always been Chuckles Wilson who's done that show, but it's workign title when they started it was "It's not just fishing" and was changed to "Go Fishing" just before release.
