It's Good To Be Back! Posted by Tommy De Cleen
Belgian carper, Tommy De Cleen tells you a little about why he is so pleased to back fishing with Mainline Baits...
This story starts at around 98/99 I think it was, when Danny Fairbrass used to fish a few times a year in Belgium with me and some other guys. So it was Danny who introduced me to Mainline Baits and it was then I started using it and buying it for a few years and after some time I joined the ranks of the Mainline Baits team. Fishing with baits like Fusion, Maple-8 and Activ-8 (Activ8 is still my favourite bait of all time) and being quite successful on all the waters I fished at the time in France and Belgium small and big canals and rivers.
Then all of a sudden this year when I was fishing at Ladywell in the UK someone says to me, I would like to see you back on the firm? I say Mainline? Yes was the answer, it would be great to see you and your mate Erik back at Mainline Baits. After returning home this kept me awake so a few days later I send this guy a message via Facebook and asked him again, are you sure? Again the answer was yes and so the ball was in motion and after a great talk on the phone with Kevin, my mate Erik Hakvoort and myself are now part of the team. I must say I have returned to where I belong and I will keep on fishing and catching on these great baits.
Tight lines Tommy
