Rest in peace Eddie Price

I had originally tagged this onto the pictures of Eddie Price thread but felt wrong afterwards that I had not made it a post in its own right.
Eddie was a true pioneer in angling and landed Chris Yates's record carp over 20 years before Chris broke the record with what became known as 'The Bishop'.
He will probably be best remembered in angling circles though for his famous picture of the Redmire Monster basking in the weed.
Here is my original post...
Rest in peace Eddie Sir.
It is sad news I receive to-day that Eddie Price M.B.E. left our world on Friday 23 rd January aged 91.
He leaves behind his loving wife and six sons.
These days are done,
their course outrun,
but angling memories still are fun.
