Rod Hutchinson

[Bjp]

i seem to remember a very drunken night in the pub next to harefield where it was two guys birthdays from the savy syndicate and two stripper grams/strippers were in attendance, Rod was there and behaved himself like a gentleman, the rest of us well it was the drink gov honest.

one of the birthday boys stripped and joined one young lady on the floor she was last seen running out the pub without a stitch on screaming her head off she had no security silly girl.

ah happy days

regards

Jutst reminded me to look at the bookshelf and see i still have my copy of Rod Hutchinsons Carp Book 1981 how time flies it is very worn and well thumbed

Further thought on what Kingfisher said above. At least we have the books. I've been reading super stuff by Tony Miles, Ivan Marks and Faddist this week, plus watching some superb AT Fishing Online videos. Des Taylor is very good, very honest and to the point. I used to work with him many years ago.....

Another thread has been started Mike. Sad news indeed, you must be so upset.

Lovely interview with RH

[Ian.R.McDonald]

He features quite a bit in Casting at the Sun, until I read that book I had no idea how much he and Chris Yates had fished together.

I think it was Chris who wrote about Rod being late for a session at Redmire. Rod couldnt get the time off work as a scaffolder. So he dropped a bundle of poles on his foot so he could have a week off sick.

I have a bottle with the dregs of of original Scopex flavour. Take the top off to trigger memories of a fishing leader and real character

I recently downloaded Rods last book " Before I forget"

A lovely piece about Redmire and his friendship with Chris Yates and also some interesting stuff about his early days with Catchum.

Short and his passing prevented completion

A great reminder of how special he was and such an important part of my fishing for carp
