I have written three books based on my joy & passion for angling & game fishing.
Terminal Chancer Silver Seasons Atlantic Salmon – 2014
Hooked On Hope – 2020
Anarchy Pie – 2023
If you really want to know about passion, humour & fly fishing….then these potent books are a must read.
Lo-fi adventures dancing to a post Covid frequency with a constant background static noise of fear and anxiety.
Following on from where Terminal Chancer and Hooked on Hope left off. Boo Gilbraith emerges from lockdown after choking on the splinters of Covid. Armed with a new resolve to fish more and to reinforce his own small mundane world.
Join him and his conflicted and dislocated associate Lamont as they search for life’s treasures along the banks of the river.
Expect – ghosts, witches, mortality, grief, romans, folklore, killer dogs, giant salmon, epic trout, stupidity, wisdom and lots of laughter

All three genre twisting books feature a colourful cast of characters and focus on our pursuit of Salmon from our home river – the Ribble & are available to buy via amazon. The lens is fixed on humour, balance and the joy of the outdoors.

For more details about both books and our podcasts, visit my site Terminal Chancer
We have also recorded six episodes of our Podcast, Hooked On Hope re-cast. The podcast is a sonic romp – not your normal podcast and very funny.
