Thanks for the information Martin.The seat bearing a plaque with his name and some background information overlooks the Derwent arm of Ladybower Reservoir.A beautiful spot.
Another thread by Pennine Lad..a few bits more information...Phil Arnott wrote: ↑Sun Apr 22, 2018 8:58 pm Martin,
many thanks for that information; I'd heard that Tag had served in the commandos but didn't know any details. Do you know anything about Tag fishing in the East Riding of Yorkshire? I know he fished River Hull and probably Hornsea Mere. When I was in my late teens I went into Duncans Gun and Tackle shop in Hull and was told that I'd just missed Tag who had left the shop a couple of minutes before.
Duncan's was the shop of Stanley Duncan who founded WAGBI although it was run by his two sons at the time.
Regards,
Phil
