Sad news, an absolute gentleman, always a big smile on his face and such an infectious laugh and giggle. Don and his fishing buddy Phil Ward go down in my book as Brooklands legends. I didn't realise till many years later that he was mentioned in Jack Hiltons book Quest for Carp.
Don was such a nice man, I'm glad our paths crossed a good few times in the early 80's and even more grateful he took the time to share some hints and tips to a young and keen carp angler like myself. Those tips and hints were put to good use in the coming years and set me on my way.
My condolences to his friends and family.
RIP Don

Sad news indeed, my condolences to friends and family.
I remember Mick from around the late 80's early 90's mostly whilst he was doing his rounds at DDAPS Sutton, had a few nice chats with him over the years. Although I never knew Mick that well its always sad to hear of the loss of any of those guys from around the Darenth Valley from that era. They were such a great bunch of lads, from all walks of life and all with a love for Carp fishing. So many unique characters all squeezed around a few small waters. The banter was at times hilarious, and despite Carp fishing still being surrounded in secrecy at this time, it still felt like one big family. Everyone spoke with everyone. They were great times to be Carp fishing
RIP Mick
