It is with great sadness that I inform you all of the death of Des Mills.
Des died from a massive heart attack on Thurs 12th .

Des was a very well respected Charter Skipper from Culdaff , Co.Donegal .

He was also the Secretary of Culdaff SAC.

Our sympathies go to his Family and friends.

That's a big loss to Irish angling ,I've fished with Des a few times and he was a gentelman and a fantastic skipper .
If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.

Very sad loss, a proper gentleman and a man with a huge knowledge of the waters off Culdaff. Be sorely missed in the summers to come.
