Every angler has their heroes. The creators you follow religiously, the brand ambassadors who’ve shaped the sport, the names you’ve watched for years, and the legends who’ve inspired generations.
On the Bank is your chance to meet them.
It’s relaxed, friendly, and built for real moments. Handshakes, selfies, quick chats, and those “I can’t believe I just met them” memories that stick with you long after the festival ends.
Who you’ll find here
We’re not dropping names just yet, but expect a mix of:
- Familiar faces from across angling media
- Top YouTubers and content creators
- Brand ambassadors from leading tackle and bait companies
- Names that have shaped the sport over the years
- Rising stars you’ll be bragging about meeting early
It’s one of the warmest, most community-driven spaces at HOOKED! and it’s going to be buzzing all weekend.
Why we built it
Every angler remembers the moment they met someone they admire. A hero, a mentor, a name they grew up watching. Those moments stick. They inspire. They light a fire.
We built On the Bank because we wanted to give anglers of all ages the chance to experience that feeling.
This isn’t a rushed signing table or a quick wave from across a barrier. It’s a relaxed, friendly space where household names, brand ambassadors, creators, and the personalities who’ve made the sport what it is can actually connect with the people who support them. Real conversations, real smiles, real memories.
It’s about celebrating the people who make angling what it is and bringing the whole community a little closer together.
Timetable coming soon
Guest announcements, appearance times, and special signing sessions will be revealed in the coming months. Keep your eyes peeled.
