Presentation

Simon is always searching for adventures. No matter if it’s the unknown small river in front of his hometown or the big natural lake in the south of France. As long as there is the possibility for adventure, he will be there. He’s mainly fishing canals, lakes and small rivers around his hometown.

Background

Simon started fishing at the age of 10, when his neighbor took him to the water for the first time. At the age of 14 he started to fishing mainly for carps. With 15 he persuaded his parents to drive him to the Netherlands and Austria for fishing. When he became 18 he spent all his holidays with road trips through France.

In the next years he was fishing 3-10 times a year at French waters far away from the well-known lakes. Today he’s married and has a son, living in a big wood house in a small little village. But still these days he’s going for weekly night session and travels for one or two longer sessions to France.
