Tengku Izzudin bin Tengku

Better known as 'Guv' for short, lives and works in sunny Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, with his lovely missus and 3 young boys (who are not unlike leather carps; smooth skinned, good fighters and ferocious eaters!). When he's not too busy working on underground power cable systems, he's seen pole fishing at his favourite fishery or chucking a lure for snakeheads in a remote location somewhere where his bosses can't get hold of him.

At the time of the World Pairs, he is 28 years and err..126 months old. Been fishing since childhood days, he had a brief affair with fly fishing and beach casting while studying in Caterham before fully converting to the joys of coarse fishing after moving to Nottingham in the mid 90s. It was in Nottingham that he discovered his passion (and obsession) for match fishing with the Keyworth & District Angling Club and Nottingham Anglers Association.

He has a regular column in a few local Malaysian angling mags called ' A Cup Of Tea With The Guv'nor' where he's been writing on and promoting coarse & match fishing since 2001. From his tireless efforts the number of Malaysia's pole anglers has surged by 300% and now they boast 4 pole anglers throughout the country.

Apart from coaching some new and budding local coarse anglers, Guv works towards so that coarse fishing will be more accepted among Malaysian anglers and is helping to set up a Malaysian Feeder Fishing Team to compete in the World Championships.

The Guv'nor is also active in river conservation and safeguarding Malaysia's native fish species and hopes that Crystal Palace FC will fare better in the Premiership this season.
