If your going to do it - I'd use proper duplon, not tape

Indeed echo every word. I only met him as a kid a few times at shows but he never once spoke down to anyone and always seemed happy. Doubt he remembers me but it’s people like that that can really help those with social anxiety at big events.

I still watch his videos on YouTube occasionally

Jans van was regularly in my village Mozzi .. full real tree as you say .

As was all his gear …

The man in red became the man in real tree .

A true gentleman of angling and extremely open honest and approachable.

Sadly missed

My mate who is a rod builder is getting plenty of requests to fit dpm/camo colour duplon on their rods. Looks terrible to me, but his customers love it
