There are some things in life that just make you say ‘hot damn’ and this is one of ‘em.
Tarquin Millington-Drake has graciously accepted our offer to join the Swing the Fly team; fittingly we’ve been emailing back and forth as he spent a busy week on the Ponoi River (Kola Peninsula, Russia) chasing Atlantic salmon.
His inability to catch fish of any notable size aside, Tarquin’s bone fides to serve as Swing the Fly’s Atlantic Salmon section editor include serving ten years as the President of the Ponoi River Company and chasing Atlantic salmon in Norway, Iceland and Russia every year for the past twenty.
Working as the Managing Director of the travel company Frontiers UK keeps him on the move; he’s also an International Director of the North Atlantic Salmon Fund in his spare time.
He has a fine eye behind the camera and writes masterfully – follow his very interesting blog Fieldsports, Photography and Frontiers here.
Hot damn.
