Bait-Tech Angler – Steve Barraclough

From Doncaster in the North East, Steve is fast making a name for himself as an individual angler as well as a team man. A key member of the Barnsley Blacks side, Steve is just as at home catching roach on bloodworm as he is plundering big weights on commercial venues. Steve already has some massive titles to his name and at just 27 has been tipped to be one of the very best in the sport. A Bait-Tech and Frenzee consultant who is always thinking of new ways to improve what he does!
