Na, breeds a bit, had a nice litter of cockers earlier this year. He still does some beating and fishing, I haven't heard from him lately but he'll be on the dog and bone this side of Xmas to try and get down his gaff for a few jars I'm sure.
I have to say though, I take my hat off to the fecker, seems to have a way with most stuff he tackles, had a few world records when he was fishing, loads of luck with his mutts over the years, traveled all over, even made some film/documentary on fishing abroad somewhere with Bernard Cribbins of all people
dont think its luck mate, i believe that
