Same as mugging old ladies?
I mean, if that's your passion....
Never met the bloke and I woudn't take anything on social media as gospel, but your hypothesis is way off.

If something is your passion you play buy the rules if you want to carry on with, stroke pulling and poaching doesn't make you a good angler it makes you a cheat and any company that knowingly sponsors such a person is in effect condoning them.

If fishing is all i ever did and i had no morale compass im sure id catch a hell of a lot more than i do

Jim is a moron. I have fished the same lake as him and how he didnt end up in the lake I'll never know

Im undecided on elliot. I like what he does and he clearly possesses some talent but giving jim any publicity means that he's condoning the bloke so im done with cypography

He certainly makes friends wherever he goes (ignoring the poor spelling)

His demeanour on camera is certainly odd. Constantly stopping and pausing like he's hiding some enormous world ending secret.

To the comment regarding Elliot condoning his behaviour (whatever that may be) is a good point, he may well suffer in terms of sales if enough people stop watching due to its Jim Shelley heavy content.

Funny how the times he's been challenged by other anglers over his attitude and behaviour never get mentioned in those butt kissing vids.

Like the time he got filled in by a famous angler on a very famous complex. Yanno, that kind of stuff....

Well as of today I've decided to end my Cypography sub due to so many Jim Shelly videos on there.

Most people in agreement on here that he poaches and is a bit of a tosser so not paying money to a place where almost 30% of the videos have him in

The best one I actually witnessed was him running off like a big girl at one of his own book signings.He had rubbed someone up the wrong way on social media and they turned up

Don't forget the reason he was banned from here years ago.

Promised a prize in a contest then couldn't be arsed to honour it. Got really arsey when challenged ( as usual) and got kicked off.

So forget, poaching, soaping, conniving, leeching - he's just not a very honest or nice person.

Now that's KIR

It's 2020 you lot have been paying for jim Shelley's carping for about 25yrs...
think Katy Hopkins, Nasty Nick etc.... well done Jim great little business.
fishing is a great leveller. If your a Dr or a dealer it's what you put on the bank..
and if you add everyone up on this thread we've Probably caught a fraction that Jim has...
Are you sure?
