Paulas, I remember the snide rumours stuff , were they written by "matthew black" ???I read on another forum somewhere that Chris Binyon passed away some years ago. I remember Shining Times, it was in Coarse Fisherman in the late 70,s early 80,s. Wish I could get hold of some of those old magazines. Mine all went in the bin years ago. I heard that david hall publishing have released a book called snide rumours and dirty lies. You might remember that aswell in coarse fisherman.

Aka Tim paisley??.
Was,nt Ray webbs boat called "The black pig" ?????going back to coarse fisherman mag, there were some real characters. Remember John Sidley from Birmingham, fished for eels and pike. Believe he died quite young. Nev Fickling used to get some stick in snide rumours. Remember Ray Webb used to fish with Barrie Rickards, real eccentric he was. He went fishing full time, in Ireland mostly I believe. There were a couple of interviews with him. If you read fishing for big tench by Rickards and Webb there is a pic of his homemade boat. Heath Robinson springs to mind!!
Showing my age now!!
