Ben Beckwith
Ben started his fly fishing journey on the River Kennet with his grandfather at a young age, and his passion for all things fly fishing only grew, leading to him earning 3 Team England Youth Loch Style Fly Fishing caps and culminating in his captaincy of Team England. Even though he is a seasoned Stillwater and reservoir angler, his true passion lies in his river fishing and he has been fortunate enough to have fished on a multitude of rivers, both in the UK and abroad.
Ben is a passionate fly tyer, specialising in flies for both still and running water. Although he enjoys tying for stocked trout, his true passion much like his fishing falls to the rivers. You may have seen Ben demonstrating at one of the many UK shows including the BFFI, The London Fly Fair or The European Fly Fishing Show.
