Garth Ethelston is well respected in the Angling trade having been involved in the industry for almost 20 years. He has worked for brands such as Gardner Tackle, Advanced Carp Fishing Magazine, and Korda Developments and he brings with him an extensive knowledge of products and baits.
With over 30 years of experience, Garth is an accomplished angler in his own right. Originally from Derbyshire, he moved ‘south’ after completing his BSc in business so that he could fish Horton’s Church lake. Since then, he has caught plenty of large fish, of most species, and although predominately a Carp angler, Garth spends much of the winter fishing the Oxfordshire Thames for specimen fish of other species. Bait has always played a key part in Garth’s fishing. Generally, fishing overnight or short river sessions, bait preparation, and application is a major part of how he approaches his angling and he understands the benefits of using quality bait.
Garth’s role, as Brand Manager, is to grow and evolve the Blakes Baits brand, look after our team of anglers and help with the development of exciting new products.
