Welcome to Cast & Kayak

Welcome to Cast & Kayak

Hi, I’m Jonny!

The great outdoors is my playground, and fishing and kayaking are my ultimate pastimes.

With over 20 years of angling experience across the UK, Ireland, Spain, Turkey, Cyprus, Greece, France, and Australia, I’ve tried my hand at every type of fishing imaginable – from pier fishing to fly fishing, and from trolling to spearfishing.

My adventures on the water have made me a seasoned hobbyist, not an expert, but someone with a wealth of diverse experiences to share.


Living near the ocean for most of my life, I’ve developed a deep respect for the beauty and peace it offers.

Kayaking is another passion of mine, allowing me to explore silent, pristine waters.

Through Cast & Kayak, I aim to share my knowledge and respect for these activities, emphasizing the importance of protecting the places that bring us joy and adventure.

Join me in exploring the best gear, tips, and tales from the water.

Happy fishing, happy paddling!
