WalesTeam#1 - World Predator Classic 2020

My name is James 'Jimmy' Lemon, I am a keen lure angler in both fresh and saltwater,
and run a small guided fishing operation from the village of Dale, Pembrokeshire.
Together with a Dutch angling friend, Guido Merlijn, we are entered in to
the World Predator Classic, in Holland, 22-27th June 2020, entering the
FIRST angling team representing Wales to enter the tournament in it's history.

We are both accomplished lure anglers in both salt and fresh water, both of us are former WPC event marshals,
and we have become great friends through our collective angling interest. Now we both wish to make a dream a
reality and be competitors in the WPC. We will be wearing our own respective country colours,
whilst flying the flag of Wales.
The team is entered as a Welsh Team (see boat 18): 


The WPC is the most international lure angling event in Europe, for WPC2020 18+ countries,
65 boats, and takes place from Hellevoetsluis, Holland over 5 days in June each year.
It is a catch & release lure tournament, attracting the best anglers in Europe, targeting Zander,
Perch & Pike. The prize fund exceeds £70,000 and there is a team place on the European Team
heading to America for the Ryder cup style Angling Supercup… so there is a lot to fish for...
This is where dreams could become reality.
