Hey jonny here is a pic from Derek's log, it was a few years back, in fact Derek was about 46 years old & fishing a mark in about 40' of water around 1 mile out from the shore.
I went out with him once & only once! I was 25 years old & a competitive swimmer but, Derek definitely had the legs on me!
The event took three hours including a 30 minute swim either way, Derek caught 3 big plaice & I had 2 but, he would do this three or four times a week for about 15 years until his ears could take no more!
At least you know where go Jonny...

I'm very honored to be a small part of this to honor a great waterman, and look forward to the day I share a pint and a dive with the clan.
All the best, Don
So the first FOM has started and the first Bass has been shot, and the best thing is, is that it came from good old Dorset.
Come on all you Irish boys, I’ve read a lot of fighting talk but you’re nowhere to be seen…

Good old Flyflicker - first bass of Spring, as always, and now first entry to kick off the OMD FOM for 2011.

(Won't be long though)

tough choice between bass and plaice.... if i saw both i'd prob take the plaice, but for this time of year a bass is great but a double figure is amazing... last years april fom didnt even have a bass...
twas a very tough dcecision...
