Daz Taylor

[Elton]

I'm sure many of you already know, but it's been reported that Daz Taylor died yesterday. I didn't know him personally, but quite a few people in the trade did, from his involvement in various sea fishing magazines.

 

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this terrible time.

OMG, thats bad news Elton. Didnt know him personally but he used to post on our site. Dont think he was very old either. RIP Daz, and of course condolences to all his friends and family.

He was only 40, Glenn. Far too young

Thats just no age at all, seems so unfair. Apparently some of the lads up here knew him well as he came up to write articles. All the guys speak very highly of him and say how likable he was.

SHOCKED

 

I was lucky to be able to fish with Daz, back in 1998, from John Rawles' boat Kingfisher. We were in the Sea Anglers Champion of Champions Boat Competition where Daz was doing his reporting.

 

A fantastic day as we were also learning to Uptide, with John sharing with us his experience of that style of fishing.

 

Daz on the day was telling me how he loved the sea fishing reporting and was taking him to many places that we could only dream of.

 

I've followed his reports and banter over the years and it is of great sadness, at such a young age, that a fellow sea angler has gone, but not forgotten.

 

RIP Das
