Gord Burton's Life in Angling

[@tommos16]

Was speaking to him yesterday, met him on the drains in Southport. Really good guy!

[@MrChivers123]

Remember me, Gord? Nick Fletcher - I did that Angling Times feature with you on the River Crossens, it would’ve been about 1979. You had a little terrier with you, another proper character! I still work part-time for AT, for my sins! I was watching a KZbin documentary with John Fury, Tyson’s dad, and he mentioned the Burtons, a well-known boxing family - are you related to them? They’re good big ’uns... well, your’e a good little ’un. Best of luck, Gord, and keep writing to our letters page.

i think gord was a boxer in his younger days, i seen a few videos of him online messin around thrown a few jabs

[@bunnyblatter1]

What an absolute top bloke. You can feel his passion for fishing for pike in his voice. If he can't get young kids interested in angling then I don't know who could

[@bigchris80]

Was a pleasure to meet him on the bank at the weekend, proper LEGEND and glad to finally meet him

[@bigchris80]

Met him today again, big ups Gord 🙂👍🎣

The best times I ever had were spent sitting in my boat on big lochs and lakes back in the eighties. It wasn't the most productive fishing but it was the most fun and it was reading Gordon's articles and talking to him at the Sluice that got me doing it. I never cared how much of what he said he caught was true, his enthusiasm and obvious enjoyment of this kind of fishing was inspiring. Ahh, the things you have time do when you're single.

Real characters like gord and Grahame pullen is what angling needs, there's far too many bores and tackle tarts around
