Shaun Cumming

Shaun's angling journey began at the age of 5 when natural instinct took over; since then he has been at the waters edge with a rod in his hand, learning, discovering and enjoying. Since his first capture some 14 years ago, Shaun has represented Scotland on a number of occasions, and has went on to establish his self as a freelance angling photojournalist - on top of his 9-5 as a trainee accountant!

Shaun's main angling interest lies with the sea, although he will target anything that swims. He has landed several double figure trout to 18lb on the fly, and re-visits his boyhood flyfishing passion whenever time allows. Shaun believes sea fishing brings him greater challenge, and is inspired by diversity.

Shaun rates winning a gold medal for Scotland amongst his greatest angling memories, but admits that his greatest achievment is having the opertunity to inspire people through his work. Shaun is highly motivated, and his ambition is to travel the world, fishing along the way.
