I have no idea who did this. You are geniuses, and I salute you. One of the most brilliant acts of urban humour to have been seen in the Wood for a long time. Bravo! The image has been kindly supplied by Godfrey Hucker for which I thank him profusely.
No doubt the Express & Star will be in on the case. To help out whichever poor hack gets sent out, Walsall Wood is between Walsall and Lichfield on the A461. Bring your bulletproof vest.
HI Bob
saw this “catch” this morning. Burst out laughing out loud and thoroughly enjoyed the joke. I think the angler is even smiling at this catch, if you look closely!
cheers

That is absolutely inspired. There should be a series: an old bike next month, a shopping trolley the one after…..
Haha love such crazy stuff!
Hi Bob, spotted it on my way to work this morning, and it tickled me. From the bridge, the boot just glowed in the dark……nice sense of humour.
Hi David…. I think i read somewhere that the fisherman was modelled on local man David Evans…….is it you?
If you look carefully through the links in the original articles about the fisherman, you’ll find the relevant story at the Express & Star…
Best wishes
Bob
Hi Caz
sort of..poetic license over my waistline, though.Saved a lot of metal! The boot is lovely..is it an old fireman’s boot?
Its good to have a chuckle now and then!
cheers
David
