Yes I used to meet up with Vic every Wednesday there. Got quite a lot of Vhs footage off Vic's camera including a 100lb plus haul we shared. There is an amusing bit on that where Simon Wrathall walks off in disgust as I lift another good fish to the surface.
I really miss Vic and his stories. Hopefully he is resting in peace by some tranquil pool.
Vic could never catch on the mackerel as I did. It was so strange until I brought some mackerel for him. It turned out his local mackerel were out the North sea but my mackerel I brought by the box full from the fish market still in sea ice were from the Atlantic. Those Claydon fish loved tnem but not the North Sea ones. Makes you think a bit doesn't it?
