Growing up in Essex, Tom found his passion for cooking while working at a local pub as a kitchen porter aged 15 before eventually moving to London and began working at Scott's Mayfair, where his love for cooking fish and shellfish started. In 2022 Tom and the team opened Scott's Richmond, a stunning restaurant situated overlooking the Thames. Tom’s always been fond of angling, however, his 'obsession' for fly fishing began a couple of years ago. It's not only the pursuit of catching fish that is so appealing for Tom but also getting to spend time in areas of natural beauty.

As a Welshman it’s no surprise that Colton’s primary passion is catching salmon and sea trout on the fly from his local Rivers Towy and Cothi, where he also guides. However he’ll chase anything that can be caught on a fly, from pike and carp close to home, to everything that tropical saltwater can offer.

Lucinda got into fly fishing when she realised how good it was at improving her mental health and wellbeing. A few years down the line she is now an AAPGAI professional casting instructor specialising in Spey casting, and a certified level 2 Angling Trust coach. When she’s not teaching, coaching or guiding (she hosts guided salmon days throughout the year, with a huge focus on women and children), she’s happy to cast for anything that will take a fly. Her greatest passion though is Atlantic salmon and sea trout.

Jo has fished since she was a teenager, and got into fly fishing for pike while kayaking on the East Anglian rivers. As her love of fly fishing grew, so did her knowledge and the types of species she pursued and the places she fished. And she became really rather good at it. She is now a Level 2 Angling Coach, ambassador for the Angling Trust, and as well as hosting many trips to foreign destinations she once managed an Atlantic salmon lodge in Norway. She still guides part-time and loves tying flies.
