Mike Wilson has sent me literally dozens and dozens of 60mm slides which I am converting to PC format for him, and he has kindly let me put whatever I want on the forum.

Thanks Mark, I gather that now from looking at the other thread. They are top notch pictures taken on a quality camera.

Many thanks to Mike for sharing :Hat:

I remember night fishing Wraysbury in the late 60’s as a kid and he was fishing the next swim, he made us tea in the morning and helped my mate catch a 5lb tench, brilliant chap !!

I am sure it was Bob B and Len Arbery who fished together at a pit near Shepperton Studios, Addlestone Angling water. Where Bill Rushmer & I met them both whilst we also tench fished there.

A great picture of Bob with some very large tench.

I suspect that the pictures you are working on could make an excellent published photo-book!
