Nick Warren – DJ, record producer and lifelong angler
Born and raised in Bridport, Dorset, Nick’s love of fishing began in childhood on the small rivers flowing through the town, targeting brown trout and sea trout, alongside formative days sea fishing on nearby Chesil Beach. That early connection to fish and water has endured throughout a global music career that has seen him tour the world while remaining, by his own admission, “an obsessed fly fisherman”.
Nick rose to prominence after moving to Bristol in the 1980s, forging close ties with the emerging trip-hop scene and touring extensively with Massive Attack during the 1990s. He went on to achieve chart-topping success with Way Out West and remixing artists ranging from The Cure to Art of Noise.
Nick comments: “Alongside catching salmon and sea trout, my angling focus these days seems to be my concern at the flagrant disregard politics and business show for our waterways and fish. Anglers need to stand together, and champion our cause. Anything I can do to help the Angling Trust in their great work will be a pleasure, and I am honoured to be an Ambassador.”
