Biografie: Chris McCully![]() Chris McCully has been fishing since losing his first trout on Coniston Water in the English Lake District in 1965. For many years he fished in his native Yorkshire – in the Dales rivers for brown trout and grayling. Later he fished widely on the English stillwaters (brown and rainbow trout) and in Scotland and Ireland (sea-trout and occasional salmon). In 1995 he visited Denmark, and has returned there, usually twice each year, to fish for coastal sea-trout and sometimes for grayling. Since Chris came to live full-time in the Netherlands in 2003 he has fished widely both in the north and north-east of the country for pike and zander, often with the fly-rods, as well as making trips to Ireland and Sweden to fish for pike. His other angling adventures include trips to Greenland (charr), Africa (bonito and sail-fish), and the US and Canada (sturgeon and trout). If he was – though god forbid – confined to fish for just one fish for the rest of his life he’d fairly unhesitatingly choose the sea-trout...though grayling and pike would run them close. Chris’s angling books include A Dictionary of Fly-Fishing (1992), The Other Side of the Stream (1998), Sketches with Fishing Rods (2008) and Fishing and Pike Lures (2009) – all of which will be available at the Fly Fair 2010. In 2006 he edited Ad Swier’s Passion for Pike. In 2011, Outside: Fishing, Writing and Living by the Wadden Sea will appear from the Two Ravens Press, and Chris is currently working with Ken Whelan and James Sadler on a major new project for The Medlar Press, Irish Sea Trout: Nomads of the Tides (publication 2013). Chris contributes regularly to the UK journals Trout and Salmon and Waterlog, and in the Netherlands has begun (in 2008) to contribute to De Roofvis. |
