Received the sad news today that Haydn Borthwick had passed peacefully away
after losing his battle with cancer.
after losing his battle with cancer.
I’m going fishing said he with a faraway look in his eyes
He was already at the lake, with the gentle splash of the water
Lapping against the reeds.
I’ll get a fish for you he said, I may even catch a carp
And then I can really talk and tell a fantastic tale.
But I had a look And I could see it just wasn’t meant to be.
He was asleep in a world of his own. It was only a dream.

Haydn was always a character on the Maggotdrowning.com fish-ins and Maggotdrowning matches. A true pleasure angler he staunchly stuck to his rods and reels while all around him used poles. He was just happy to cast a float out and catch a fish whilst everyone else was still pratting about with their poles and a mountain of gear, as he put it.
He’ll be sorely missed by those that had the pleasure to meet and fish with him. Rest in Peace Fella.
