Iron Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith got hooked on fishing as a child
growing up in East London, plundering ponds and bomb craters on the
Hackney Marshes for newts and sticklebacks, and catching perch from
the Grand Union Canal while on outings with his father. And then
things began to get more exotic. The young angling enthusiast grew
up to become lead guitarist in one of the most successful rock
bands in history, and started traveling the world playing to
millions of fans. But once a fisherman, always a fisherman. The
gear went with him; the fish got bigger; the adventures more
extreme. Welcome to the world of Adrian Smith, as he clocks in to
his day job furthering the geographical boundaries of hard rock,
and clocks out to explore far-flung rivers, seas, waterways, lakes,
and pools on his fearless quest for fishing nirvana. His first
sturgeon was a whopping 100-pounder from Canada’s swirling Fraser
River that nearly wiped him out mid-Maiden tour. And how about the
close shave with a large shark off the Virgin Islands while wading
waist-deep for bonefish? Not to mention an enviable list of
specimen coarse fish from the UK. It's a lifetime adventure in
fishing.
