About Jeremy Wade
Wade first picked up a fishing pole when he was a boy, when his family lived in East Anglia, on the banks of the River Stour in Suffolk. He has been an avid fisherman ever since. He talks about how a river ran right through the middle of the town that he spent my childhood in. As a result, he believed it was inevitable that he should be drawn to it, much in the same way that people who are born in the vicinity of Alpine peaks grow up to be mountain climbers.
At the age of seven or eight, while he was making initial attempts to catch fish, he was unsuccessful. However, a friend from school gave him some advice, and after making his first catch, he has never looked back.
Wade was raised in Nayland, where his father served as the vicar. Wade was born in Ipswich but spent his childhood there. He received his education at Dean Close School, his bachelor’s degree in zoology from Bristol University, and his postgraduate teaching certificate in biological sciences from the University of Kent.
He is currently working as a teacher. He has previous experience teaching biology to high school students in the state of Kent. During the course of his travels around the world, Wade has suffered from malaria, been confronted with a threat while holding a gun to his head, and lived through an aircraft disaster. He is also fluent in French and Spanish in addition to his native tongue of Portuguese, which he learned while working as a fisherman in Brazil for a number of years.
In 2016, Wade and his crew were filming on a remote island close to Australia when they came across a man who had become marooned on the island after losing his boat while digging for oysters. The man had become stuck on the island. Before Wade and his crew discovered him, the man, who they later determined to be Tremaine, had been marooned on the island for a total of two days.
In 2018, Wade was asked to anchor the documentary series Mighty Rivers on Animal Planet. In this series, he analyzes the disappearance of freshwater giants from some of the most famous rivers in the world. In 2019, Wade will move on to the documentary series Dark Waters on Animal Planet, which investigated mysterious sightings of mythical monsters all across the world. Mysteries of the Deep is a new TV series that he started in the year 2020. In it, he investigates many mysteries that take place underwater, such as the Loch Ness Monster and the Bermuda Triangle.
