Ashmira is all for fishing, football and having fun with family

Fishing is ideal during these trying times, as there's no contact and you can easily socially distance from other angler

Ashmira Pather is no stranger to making sporting headlines.

A cricketer who loves watching football, the Covid-19 pandemic put a bit of a halt to her love of sports but conversely gave her a chance to focus on her fishing.

Fishing is ideal during these trying times, as there’s no contact and you can easily socially distance from other anglers.

“I love fishing because the atmosphere is relaxing and peaceful, and you can just enjoy being outdoors, plus I get to spend time with friends and family.” With lockdown now easing, Ashmira has been out to Chelmsford Dam twice with boyfriend, Shervive (who, ironically is a hard core Manchester United fan) and has been successful in landing a few big fish.

A proud Liverpool fan as well, Ashmira couldn’t resist wearing her beanie during her last fishing trip to celebrate the team winning the Premier League title.
