Leeds Amateur Fishing is a website created and run by two brothers living in Leeds. Due to the lack of local advice on fishing spots, tackle shops and anything else to do with angling, we took it upon ourselves to inform the masses.

Karl is 17, a dedicated angler whos nuts over chickens!!

Michael is 24, a computer geek who loves to fish.

You're most likely to find us at the River Aire or at Chippies Quarry, constantly striving to demolish personal bests and having the odd competition between us.

While we are both amateur anglers (are you ever really anything other than amateur, as there are always tips n tricks to learn), we thought it would be helpful and beneficial to share our knowledge with anyone and everyone whos interested. Local spots, to tackle shops, bait and rigs to tips and techniques, this website aims to bring it to you in a simple and easy to use way. Putting you straight into the information, while being easy on the eye and not just a wall of text to take in.
