#6 THE TENCHFISHERS with Phil Jackson

from CREEL · host Joff Elphick

In this episode of CREEL podcast from EFGEECO.COM Joff talks to Phil Jackson from The Tenchfishers. We get visits from Hugh Tempest Sheringham. Mr Crabtree and Peter, Izaak Walton and The Rev William Houghton. Phil tells us where the fishing bug started for him. How he thought he may have been 'a bit of an annoying little prat' in Ted Oliver's shop Olivers of Knebworth. He was at school with Dick Walker's sons and to this day regrets failing to take up the offer of a visit to Dick's house to get some cutting edge carp fishing advice. He discusses the start of The Tenchfishers, it's demise, and its resurrection in the late sixties. Phil remembers well his first visit to The Tenchfishers AGM where he got to waggle a rod with Len Head. Other names from the world of tench fishing get a mention too. Pete Jackson. Barrie Rickards, John Ellis, Harry Green, Les Millington, Tony Marris, Dai Gribble, Jack Walpole, Kenny Parsons, and Pete Davis. The Tenchfishers book TINCA TINCA gets discussed as does Tenchfishers TV which along with the website is a shop front for the group. We discuss the bulletin, The national Tench Heritage Alliance, and Sywell Resevoir. Many thanks to Phil for taking time out to discuss his fishing life and the group.
