With Julian winding-down operations on the Top Pool, it would appear Phil Wain, aka ‘Phil Highlander’ has taken up the vacant post of ‘site furniture’. Phil made the Top Pool his main target during 2005 and banked a couple of stunners along the way - no doubt many more will follow.

Phil is a highly accomplished angler with many impressive captures under his belt and recently completed a mammoth ‘Boothsmere Uncut’ series covering his time on the north-west mere during 2003/4 which will soon be featured in the articles section.
