RIP Sir Pete.
That Wraysbury brace was one of the most iconic carp captures ever for me. Incredible!

I believe it was Rob Maylin who christened Pete, Sir. Think it sort of stuck. Probably a lot more deserved than some of those hereditary waste of space out there..😀

Sad news - R.I.P Pete Springate
|
|

Very sad indeed a proper legend in every sense .
The best interview style podcast ever is the thinking tackle one on you tube with pete and Ritchie mac..2 parter around 4 hours of 2 legendary anglers reminiscing and chewing the fat.
Think I'll watch it again now.
Not many would attempt to catch fish on floaters in every month in a calendar year..pete done it twice

Very true, i do somewhat baulk at the "sir". He's just a bloody good fisherman , and by all accounts a thoroughly nice guy.. I'm Not deffering to anyone who hasnt been knighted by the crown , and there's plenty of them who deserve it less a bloody good fisherman who did it before it became " easy " full respect. Rip Mr Springate I respect you fully for what you di d for yourself and the promotion of our sport ..
