Match This Champion, Les Thompson to host Facebook chat night.
Bait Tech and Matrix consultant Les Thompson is the star in line for the next installment of Bait Tech’s hugely popular Facebook chat nights. Les has been at the forefront of the commercial match scene for many years. The Midlands based angler is heavily involved in bait and tackle design, with an understanding of the industry topped by an in depth knowledge of the sport.

In 2012, he became only the second man ever to win angling's biggest prize; the mighty £50k purse and the Maver Match This trophy. Les is looking forward to trying to defend his title and compete for many others during the 2013 big event season.

With a Fish O Mania final appearance under his belt and literally hundreds of big open match wins, who would bet against him becoming the first man to win the event twice?
