Once again I will raise my glass to the late great Bernard Venables.

Thank you for your vast contribution to angling. :Thumb:

A glass being raised this very moment ! :Hat:

Absolutely Shaun to Bernard we'll charge a glass.
To know him through his work is one thing but the older I get the more I understand him
and that is such an enjoyable journey for which I'm most grateful.

A man who understood the soul of angling and who introduced generations to the sport. A glass shall be raised to the legend.
