EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the nostalgic era of the 1960s, this print showcases two avid anglers, Jack Curtis and Bill Keal, enjoying a serene day on the banks of the picturesque River Stour. As they pursue their beloved hobby, their camaraderie is evident in every detail. In this particular moment frozen in time, Bill Keal has decided to bed down for the night, fully prepared for a long wait ahead as he strategically dead baits for that elusive monster poke. His dedication to his craft is highlighted by his specially made outsize landing net, a testament to his experience and expertise. The date etched beneath the image reads 27 September 1969 – an autumn day when nature's vibrant colors would have painted a breathtaking backdrop against which these men pursued their passion. The scene exudes tranquility and serenity; it transports us back to simpler times when hobbies like fishing provided solace from life's hustle and bustle. Camping gear scattered around them tells tales of adventure and self-sufficiency. A trusty thermos flask sits nearby - perhaps filled with hot tea or coffee - providing warmth during chilly moments spent waiting patiently for that prized catch. This remarkable photograph not only captures an intimate moment between friends but also serves as a window into England's rich angling heritage. It reminds us of how pastimes like fishing can forge lasting bonds while allowing individuals to connect with nature's beauty.
