couldn't agree more corby, a tragic loss to the sea angling community

my condolences to his family.
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.

Liam was a true gent in every sense, and from his videos you can see his absolute love of fishing which is infectous to watch.

A tragic loss to his family and friends and my deepest sympathies to you all.

May he rest in peace.
