CAT-TEX Skills Camp | River Trent | 2024 dates now live
If you’re an angler with a passion for catfishing, and you’re eager to develop your skills, then the CAT-TEX Skills Camp is your ideal destination. Covering everything from rig-building to watercraft skills, and techniques like breakline, stone, buoys, and vertical angling, you’ll emerge from our camp as a more knowledgeable and capable angler. You’ll be shown everything Harry South, angling coach and the founder of CAT-TEX. With a remarkable 15 years of catfishing experience, and an impressive 80% of it on rivers. He understands that everyone learns differently, which is why the camp’s approach is customised to your unique style. Rest assured, Harry’s extensive teaching experience ensures that you’ll retain all the information you’ve learned, and you’ll be prepared to embark on a European catfishing tour with confidence.
Why Choose CAT-TEX Skills Camp?
We understand that no two anglers are the same, so we offer one-on-one or small group sessions tailored to your unique learning style. Our goal is to ensure that you gain a complete understanding of catfishing techniques and principles.
Watercraft skills are at the heart of successful catfishing, and at CAT-TEX, you’ll master them with hands-on experience. We will guide you through scanning depths, reading currents, deciphering the river’s language, and ensuring boat safety. We take you from daylight navigation to the more challenging blind night navigation, where lights and echo are off-limits, preparing you for any angling situation.
At CAT-TEX Skills Camp, we firmly believe in learning by doing. This isn’t a camp where you’ll passively observe – you’ll actively participate in every aspect of catfishing. Under our guidance, you’ll choose your equipment, tie your rigs, and deploy your baits. This hands-on approach fosters self-sufficiency and confidence, two crucial qualities for successful angling.
But CAT-TEX Skills Camp isn’t just about honing your skills for a few days; it’s an investment in your angling future. We don’t just guide you; we challenge you to reach the top of your game. This achievement signifies your ability to conquer Europe’s most significant and demanding rivers, showcasing boat safety, boat workmanship, angling methods, catfish safety, and, of course, reeling in enormous monster catfish from the depths.
