Fred J Taylor, who died 7 May 2008 aged 89, became one of Britain's
best-known countrymen as the author of a stream of books and articles on
fishing, rabbiting and other aspects of rural life; for more than half a
century he informed, educated and amused successive generations of lovers
of the great outdoors.

Now he taught me a lot about angling!
Sorely missed :-(


I have to agree Alec, it used to be "Who to read first" in Angling Times of
the 1960's.. Fred J or Richard Walker.

And in the sadly long gone Fishing Gazette.
