Think it was 4 diffrent forties in one season from Horton
He wrote about it in one of Tim paisley's books. Some achievement in the early 90,s.

The clothes thing was just the sign of the times really. In the late 80's early 90's you wore ether army surplus. But you was looked on as a bit serious. Or you wore what you didn't mind getting dirty from your wardrobe. And in the early 90's colourfull clothes were abound. By the sounds of it Kieth didnt take it to serious

Loved his stories about Horton back in the day in Carpworld, I remember he had a brilliant season one year catching many of the great history fish of the 90s........ A feat even more impressive with his outrageously bright clothes! Ha ha. His articles in Carpworld always used to raise a smile with his humour and capture of big carp with him and his friends. Thanks for the great memories Keith!

Very sad. I used to enjoy reading about Keith and Laneys fishing adventures, back in the 90s, when I was really getting into carp fishing.

RIP Keith

RIP Keith, remember reading about his angling in the late 90's, great angler and a real character.

Wow, that's devastating. First met Keith when he was fishing Eridge Park. The company I had at the time authored the DVD he included in Pete Springate's "Moon River". RIP mate.

It's really sad. Slowly losing the anglers that we respected.

The younger carp anglers of today are not as lucky as we were. The people we all read about in the magazines were just different before the internet. He was one of those.

RIP Keith.

I met Keith a few times at shows and he was always friendly and chatty.
At one particular show I ended stopping at his stand and chatting to him three times and somehow ended up buying The Myth twice by mistake.
The following year I told him what had happened he laughed and offered to refund my money for one of the books, which I declined.
Lovely guy. R.I.P.
