The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

Here is a young Rod Hutchinson, picture courtesy of Mike Wilson, thank you Mike.

Is that a hat or his hair!!?

I'd say definitely early to mid 70's hair.

Nah.....its a Ruskie Soviet Hat!!!

Looked up a few images of him and I would say its definately HAIR and lots of it !

A truly great angler.

An angling legend for sure

Anyone know what became of him?

A recent interview I think: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVw4owxF ... w&index=72

Rod was a hero and still is to many old school carpers.......I have great admiration for the man and his achievements. I remember talking to him at a carp anglers association bash many years ago, he was a mine of information. We hit the bar afterwards.......there was no way I could compete, I don't think Peter Mohan was too impressed!
