Neil Machin,has just won the Parksdean masters and picked up a cool £25000,he also won the festival the week before for £3000,Add this to the £25000 he won at fishomania adds upto £53000.This is not including his weekly open wins.Who said you cant make a living match fishing.

tis a nice pick up ;D
makes you wonder how much the like of bob nudd and alan scotthorne are earning if they can turn their noses up at matches like fishomania

True Dave.

How much do people reckon these guys earn through fishing?

If Nuddy charges £200 or a days fishing Then he has books, DVDs, mag features and probably a percentage from everything he has his name on...........

Id say about £100.000 a year.............??

machin won £30.000 +£1.ooo worth of tackle in just the three weeks he was at w/a alone, not counting his £25.000 winnigs and the money he took of the bookies for the fisho final.

[bigdave]

but is he happy, i mean fancy having to go fishing all the time and getting paid to do it....what a drag

[chaggi]

I know what you mean,i would rather be out shopping for a new handle for the yard brush,but that would create its own problems,should i go for a softwood handle or a hardwood one?
