" Billy’s years of knowledge and success shine throughout this 2 day workshop.  I not only immensely enjoyed each part of the workshop but have managed to successfully use Bill’s switch baiting techniques out of my own boat.  I’m now happy to say that switch baiting is the way to go if shown by an expert like Billy!”  Brian Jefferson, Gold Coast.
