The Gambling Angler Omdömen 

Went out with Jansen off Brean Down Somerset
Amazing evening learnt lots of new techniques.
Great communication from the initial booking right through to the actual evening.
Great fun thoroughly enjoyed the time in Jansens company.
10 out of 10 👍👍👍👍👍🐬

Jansen is a fantastic guide with a huge range of knowledge of the Bristol Channel. My session with him included two PB's, and I came away with lots of learned skills. I would recommend The Gambling Angler to anyone wanting a fantasic shore fishing experience!

I have been going through cancer treatment and mental health for a couple years now and always wanted to fish the Bristol Channel from Cornwall. I met Jansen after watch his you tube videos. After talking with him he gave me the enthusiasm and confidence to book and go for my first session. Although it was tough fishing the confidence he gave and the little bits he taught me have improved how I fish. I recently did my second session and it was a cracker for fish. You couldn’t meet a nicer guy to take you out. It’s not just the fishing but the chat aswell. He gave me a sense of happiness I haven’t had a lot in hard times recently. For any guided sessions to the channel he is your man from the little details to the marks to landing fish. Thank you Jansen and look forward to return asap

Always heard so much about fishing the Bristol Channel, over the years I’ve been fishing. Massive tides, mud and getting cut off! When I moved to the area, I have to say I was nervous about trying some of these areas by myself. Then I discover The Gambling Angler. Have done 6 sessions with him now, a true gent! Started off at a fairly safe and comfortable mark and have since done some proper hikes out to some amazing spots. I’ve smashed PB’s with him had a lot of laughs (and bacon rolls). If your a complete novice or and experienced angler, what you’ll experience with Jansen will enhance your fishing massively. Highly recommended and will continue to book sessions for the experience, the knowledge and the laughs!

Had a guided session with jansen, fished a mark local to Somerset , his experience with knowledge of local marks, the correct bait and a bit of determination showed me what can be achieved! I had a great time and caught my best shore caught codling to date.
Overall can't fault the service and would definitely recommend !

Fishing off the shores of the Bristol Channel can be quite an apprehensive and intimidating experience, even dangerous if you're new to fishing. This was the case for me and booking a session with Jansen gave me a quick safe start to begin exploring the Channel. Jansen's approach to coaching is very professional, respectful and informative. If you're thinking about fishing the Bristol Channel, and want to get the best start, you will learn a lot to from Jansen and probably continue to book future sessions with this very knowledgeable and friendly angler.

I have had the honour of being able to book 2 sessions with Jansen. I'm by no means a totally inexperienced fisherman, but what I learnt off Jansen in 2 sessions has most definitely taken my fishing to a higher level. I would highly recommend anyone who is getting into fishing or already fishes but wants to improve their ability to have a session with The Gambling Angler. I myself will most certainly be looking to have another session with Jansen when the bass are in.

I have had numerous guided fishing session's with Jansen. Each time Jansen has been very helpful with sharing his vast knowledge and experience. Jansen is very friendly and always accomodating regardless of ability and experience. I highly recommend booking. I will be booking again.

I went out with Jansen last year at a low water mark in the channel. I’d like to think I’ve got a good idea about fishing but Jansen has a huge knowledge. Being a low water venue it has its dangers so it was really re assuring to get out with someone who knew the venue inside out. Has also been more than helpful since our trip out with helping me to upgrade some of my fishing kit. Hopefully this year I can find the time to pay Jansen for another guided trip to another new mark. I’d highly recommend him to people, new to fishing, looking to improve your fishing or even if you want to learn a new mark. Top guide!!

What an excellent service from start to finish. Jansen listened to my big list of things I wanted to catch, and where I needed help.
Let’s just say that the list is now a lot smaller!! Thank you so much and can’t wait to see you again!

Jansen is a truly fantastic angler,person and guide. My father inlaw usually joins us on a guided fishing session with jansen and is always made to feel very welcome and at ease.

100% recommend a guided fishng trip to anyone from begginer to expert. We will be booking our 3rd guided session very soon.
