What a great ambassador John Holden has been to Sea Angling over the years. I remember reading his casting books in the late 80’s. Good stuff. I still have a Holden Trident beach shelter knocking about somewhere.

Good videos. I also like the John Holden original vhs video. I still have my copy and the booklet to support. Must have watched hundreds of times over the years. It was a huge influence in helping me to learn how to cast properly.
