  • World & European Fly Casting Champion
  • 40+ Years of Professional Guiding & Instruction
  • Renowned TV Presenter & Discovery Channel Host
  • UK Angling Authority & Technical Rigging Consultant

For over four decades, Hywel has shaped the sport. From breaking casting records on the international stage to hosting acclaimed fishing series on the Discovery Channel, his career has been dedicated to mastering the mechanics of the perfect catch. As a professional guide, casting instructor, and industry consultant, he has fished every corner of the UK, tracking down elusive marks in the most demanding conditions.

When an angler with Hywel’s lifetime of experience transitions from shore-based fishing to a mobile boat platform, every detail matters. We have worked closely with him to engineer a setup that satisfies his strict professional criteria. By combining his decades of tactical knowledge with our rugged marine engineering, we’ve created the definitive technical fishing rig, so you can skip the trial and error and get straight to the water.

"I don’t carry extras; I carry essentials. Every piece of gear in this configuration was chosen to solve a specific problem I faced when moving from the bank to the water. This is the exact setup I trust to put me on the fish." Hywel Morgan.

DEMAND THE BEST TO CATCH THE BEST

The Pro Insight: "You need a hull that doesn't flex. The Carbon Pro 365 uses high-pressure, heat-welded seams and 0.9mm PVC to create a rock-solid casting station. It’s CAT C rated, meaning it’s as comfortable in coastal chop as it is on a calm loch."

Engineered with heat-welded seams and heavy-duty 0.9mm PVC, this hull is built for the rigours of coastal fishing. The high-pressure keel provides fast planing and razor-sharp tracking for precise positioning

THE BEST IN ITS CLASS

The Pro Insight: "This is the lightest 15hp in its class, which is vital for solo mobility. The battery-less EFI system means you get instant, reliable starts every time without the weight or hassle of an external battery and complex wiring."

This battery-less EFI model is the lightest in its category. It delivers an elite power-to-weight ratio for silent, stealthy approaches and crisp acceleration when you need to move fast.

EFFORTLESS TRANSITION TO THE WATER'S EDGE

The Pro Insight: "I needed a system that allowed me to launch and recover a fully rigged boat entirely on my own. These large-diameter, heavy-duty pneumatic wheels track perfectly over sand, shingle, and mud."

Large pneumatic tyres and a marine-grade frame ensure you can launch solo over rough terrain or soft sand without missing the tide.
