I stumbled upon this video of FJT receiving his MBE in 2008.

Nigel thank you for posting the item of the great Fred J Taylor getting his well-deserved honour of his MBE. I had seen it before, but it’s refreshing to see it again, thank you.

Thank you so much for posting that.
Absolutely marvellous, what a humble man he was, a genuine " one off"
I was privileged to meet him and Richard Walker when I was a boy and I've never forgotten it, and followed him ever since.
A Model for us all.
That truly is one I will keep.
Thanks again.
Mr B.

He was one of the 'greats' of angling, a character and a very nice man. A well deserved honour! :Hat:
