Stefan Hansson - BDM

Stefan has been fishing pretty much as soon as he could walk. His first fish was a whiting taken off Sydneys Balmoral beach in the late seventies, and he has been immersed in the fishing industry for over 16 years.

He has written articles for various fishing publications (online and off), spent 8 years writing the daily fishing reports for the SMH, 10 years working in tackle stores, conceptualised built and ran the website “Sydneyfishfinder”, and occasionally acts as a fishing guide and instructor. 

Stefan has fished across Australia and the world, and rates South East Queensland with its  Jacks, Cobia and big Blue Marlin  as his favourite fishing destination, but his piscatorial loves are both casting stickbaits to big Kings and cubing for fat Yellowfin Tuna off his home port of Sydney. His favourite fishing tackle includes Accurate reels, Seeker blanks and Maria stick baits.
