Gilles Koolen

Gilles Koolen is a Belgium based predator angler who loves to rotate between zander, pike and perch fishing. For him, fishing is all about being connected with nature, creativity and to share these fantastic moments with friends.
Due to his profession, he is intrigued by the state of the art material technology used by Westin. Matching equipment to the situation and exploring new lures and techniques is something that fascinates him both on and off the water.
Fishing is always exciting but imagine the adrenaline level if you catch a giant during a competition?! Our well-established Pro Team angler Toon Van Ham and Gilles Koolen compete regularly in street fishing competitions and have multiple successes on their track record.
