What can I say? I am so chuffed to have been recognised in the Angling Times’ National Angling Awards for my Outstanding Contribution To Angling. You might think stuff like this is a regular thing. It isn’t, far from it. It is a true honour and you can bet those who have featured in other categories are equally chuffed. You ask any one of them.
And on that score, congratulations to all the other winners.
It has been a great year for me with the launch of my book, the relaunch of my website and now this. Perhaps I will now be able to find more time to fish next year but I am humming and haring about another book. No peace for the wicked, eh?
When you think about it, angling doesn’t have it’s hall of fame, or museum, perhaps an annual gala dinner? It really should, you know.. There should be a list that survives the next 100 years or maybe a thousand years. Why not? What speculation and debate it would fire up. Who’s in, and why? Or indeed, why not? There are a few skeletons out there gathering dust. How do you deal with them. Perhaps a debate for another day.
Anyway There’s an interview with yours truly in this week’s bumper edition. I’ve blurred out the text here, you tight sods! Buy a copy!
