Fishing has been part of Scott's life since catching his first salmon at the age of 10. Professionally Scott is a full-time ghillie on some of the most wonderful salmon rivers in Scotland. Over the 17 years, he has helped his clients catch over two thousand salmon.

Scott has also been keen and successful in competition Fly-casting, winning many prestigious titles throughout the world. From being Irish International Spey-casting champion in 2004, to winning the CLA game fairs Musto International Spey-casting championship 2003-2004 which is the largest Spey-casting competition in the world. But it was in 2005 that Scott really showed he was in a class of his own by winning the three biggest Spey-casting competitions in the world.

The first of these was the Spey'o'rama, held by the prestigious Golden Gate Angling and Casting Club in San Francisco, USA where he was honoured by being asked to do a casting demonstration showing his unique style to the club.

He then went on to win the Irish International Spey-casting Championship in June and in July won the CLA International Spey-casting Championship at Belvoir Castle in Leistershire for the third time running. During this competition he also set a new Spey-casting world record, casting a massive 68 yards using his unique style of casting making him one of the most successful competition Spey-casters of all time.
