angling, along with Richard Walker and BB he has hugely influential in the post
war boom in fishing. After leaving school he worked for several newspapers, it
when he produced his first cartoon strip for the Daily Mirror that he really
made his mark. It was so popular that it soon extended to a column as well and
eventually books. In 1963 he was one of the people behind the magazine Creel
