There was a superb turnout in admiration of one of Liverpool’s most respected anglers as 66 canal match men lined up on the banks of Maghull last Sunday.
Fred Moss, a past chairman and lifelong member of Liverpool & District Angling Association was known nationwide within angling circles and anglers travelled far and wide to attend this now coveted and prestigious event upon Liverpool & DAA’s calendar.
Carefully put together by L&DAA match secretary Mike Dickson, the match started at the top end of the duck’s length at Westway and went back to Liverpool through the legion, cricket pitch, Hall Lane and out to Brewery Lane at Melling.
