Anglers of a certain vintage will spot my homage to some of the inspirational writers and broadcasters of my youth. A time when fishing was all about the pleasure of taking part and not the kudos of becoming a legend in one's own little world.
So I take my metaphorical hat off in the credits to Jack Hargreaves' Out of Town programme about rural life (just as it was dying out I suppose) with the music supporting the credits.
The fake (this is a modern film after all) lino cuts a la 'BB' and my much thumbed copy of 'Rough river and Small stream fishing' by David Carl Forbes who sadly died too young.
All of them contributed to my enduring love of fishing in a way that modern journalism probably can't, rooted as it is in these less innocent times.
We were truly a lucky generation. Thank you for watching.

NB: George and I would like to apologise for the inclusion of adverts at the beginning of these videos. Throughout, we have striven to avoid any form of advertising within our films, believing that angling should and could be a world beyond the reach of crude commercial interest. Unfortunately Google have changed the rules of engagement so that we can longer prevent it.
Many of Jack Hargreaves programmes can be found on RU-vid on the channel belonging to his film maker Dave Knowles
Music - I don't know anywhere near as much about classical music as I should but to the best of my sadly failing memory, this is what I used, all of it from royalty free sites readily accessible on the internet.

The 'Moonlight' Sonata - Ludwig van Beethoven
