Chris Turnbull is perhaps best known for his angling artwork and illustrations which have adorned the covers of a large number of angling books over the past 30 years. As a specialist angler he is perhaps best known for his catches of big tench and barbel but he is in fact in love with catching almost every fish that swims with the exception of eels. He is also the author and editor of four well-received angling books, with his book A Time For Tench widely considered to be the bible for specimen tench anglers.
