Four eyes are better than two

Post by Troydog »

Shaz was out shopping on Saturday and after visiting the Oxfam shop she sent me this text.Image
Well two superb angling writers were on offer and I had neither book. I raced into town, thinking that the whole of Hereford, could be there before me. But no, there they were and they are now on the floor in the living room with me. But which two did I buy?
Trouble is, the fish just don't read the books......

The two Freds? Those would've been my choices anyway. 😁

In order to shoot some close-ups, wildlife photographer ,the late Len Scapstillon, lured the orca to him by dressing as a seal.......

What he said.
If you have no grease with you, and your rings are full of ice, do not cut out the ice with a pen-knife but get your man to put the rings one by one in his mouth, and so to thaw the ice.

I was trying to double-guess what Troydog might choose based on what I have read in his posts. Personally I’d choose David Carl Forbes and Fred Buller, as they are two missing from my collection!

When’s the big ‘reveal’ Troydog?

And a fourth for FJT and DCF.
Small stream fishing had to one of them unless of course you already have a copy. :Hat:
