It is of great sadness that we note the passing of Mr Bruce Porter.
A great family friend and fishing buddy to the late Tom Winstanley, Ken Wood, Chris Butler and also to Joe Hunter of Eskdale Green.
Many a happy day spent walking the Rivers on a sun filled afternoon checking on the extent of the latest salmon run, and bemoaning the fact that some rain is needed to increase the spate !
Thanks for the memories Bruce.
Neil Winstanley
