GUINEA BISSAU • Over the years we’ve tried to bring a wide variety of international angling adventures – the seas around the world are full of some incredible fish, many of them hard fighting and difficult to catch. We know plenty of anglers who spend most of their time seeking out exotic fishing adventures in different parts of the world, from Arctic cod and halibut to equatorial exotica and beyond. As we, hopefully, leave covid behind and we all get the travel itch we thought it would we could summarise some of the previous adventures our writers have been on and remind ourselves what they were catching. First up it’s a trip to Guinea Bissau made by James Wriggleworth and published in our very first issue in June 2016…..

ASCENSION ISLAND • In the second re-cap of past adventures in this issue we revisit day one of Sam Wadman’s trip to Ascension Island in 2016.

MANX ANGLING • Jamie Hinchliffe, Manx based charter boat skipper, competition organiser and one of our irregular contributors, sent us the details of a book he’s written about sea angling around the Isle of Man.
