I would associate Jethro Tull with traditional carp-fishing. Other ideas?

Talking of music in fishing I think I've still got a copy of Bob Nudds single "Maggots in Yer catapult" somewhere must dig it out it always cracks me up.

B......cks!!!!

I'll give you the lyrics to a proper song for anglers:

"A fishing a fishing a fishing we'll go,
Out in the sunshine or even the snow,
There's a cloud in the sky and a breeze from the west,
And we shall have fishing today on Old Test"

Corus:

"Hey nonny noe lets wassail and let's go,
We'll baiteth our hooks and our heads we'll keep low,
O hey nonny noe and our rods are a quiver,
We'll catcheth our fishes way down by the river."

The tune is played similar to an ancient madrigal with Lute, flute and dulcimer.

You are a bunch of philistines you lot.

Let's have some tradition.

Ed - 'Why Jethro Tull?'

Well....in his (their) 'chart-days' they all LOOKED like carp-fishermen...y'know, looked as though they hadn't had a decent nights kip for 6 months...a bit dishevelled.....And their music has always been sort of...countrified, sometimes eco-aware, a bit earthy!

And by the way, Ed & Co, are you aware of how BIG Jethro Tull are still? They play to packed houses in every corner of the Earth. I saw them in Oxford last year. Superb.

Oh! And PJ Proby! He's still doing it big! Though I believe his trousers remain intact nowadays.
