There's always one ...
In every match or angling club...... A comedian, someone who always makes you laugh more than anyone else.
For me it has to be Paul Martin aka Tink Winky. Fished with him for many years and every Sunday I was in tears laughing. Even had to get a box of tissues in my box
His mixture of quick puns, dirty potty mouth and bad luck always made me giggle and still does to this day
Who is yours and why ?

When it comes to banter in matches, The Jinx Series that a few of us fish takes some beating, and would probably be to much to handle for some.

In our club it used to be a bloke called Ken Seale - I remember him beating Kingfisher off the next peg once (always a tough job) 'cos he had him laughing all match and he couldn't concentrate.
One favourite story about Ken was back in the days of the old BAA Championship. He'd drawn on the Severn and it p****d down all day. Everyone was soaked through and eager to get away, and the scalesman, on his way down to the bottom of the section, asked Ken if he'd caught anything.
'I've had a nice chub' answered Ken.
'How big?'
asked the scalesman.
'Weeeellll, it might be 5 lb, it might be 6, I'm no judge,' answered Ken.
Well, back in those days a 5 lb chub was a MONSTER, so by the time the scales had come back to Ken, every angler in the section was following them, despite the teeming rain, hoping to see this beast of a fish.
With a flourish Ken whipped his keepnet from the water to reveal - a handful of bleak.
Doing a double take he shouted:'the hungry little bastards have eaten it!'
He admitted he was very lucky to have got off the bank alive!

A ‘similar’ story, but doesn’t entail bleak eating the chub was a Wednesday evening match I fished on the W&E on the Bhills MG sections in the late 80s.
Jack Fletcher, God rest his soul, (whose son Jake ran the tackle shop in Bhills) had seemingly taken me under his wing.
I was on the road section just up from the Jolly Collier (now long gone) - apart from the first few pegs near the bridge, the rest of the section - where I was in the middle - didn’t have much form. :(
In those days tench and bream usually from the pegs in the 40s on Apex bend used to win most of the matches.
I started on the punch and had a few roach. Then the smallest tench I’d ever seen from the cut - a couple of ounces. They usually were in the 2-3lb bracket. Over the next couple of hours I picked up half dozen of these small tincas.
Whistle went, I pack up and I’m waiting for the scales - ‘if yow dow weigh, yow aint caught owt’
Loads of anglers traipse past me all packed up, including a few ‘faces’
‘You the guy with half a dozen tench?’ I’m asked
‘Yep’
A few hang back with their gear waiting for the scales to reach me.
When they arrive I pull out my net and tip the contents into the basket…………the beamies didn’t even clock 2lb and the air is blue ‘Crappitty smack me, I’ve tipped a tench back’ followed by ‘That’s crappity smack all, I’ve chucked two back’
Whilst old Jack had been walking the section, all he’d done when asked if anybody was having any tench was reply honestly ‘yep, my mates got 4’ followed by ‘he’s got 5 now’ etc...........
Sad end to the story though - can't remember actually winning the section, think somebody did stop and weigh one tinca in to wipe me out
