We are sad to announce the passing of David Hall – founder and chairman of David Hall Publishing. David died peacefully in his sleep this morning after a short spell in hospital. He was diagnosed with cancer almost two years ago and had spent the past 12 months at home being cared for by his wife, Cherry. Throughout that period, David continued to take an active role in the running of DHP and asserted that the only thing keeping him from the office was an arthritic ankle!Considered a maverick when he entered the angling trade as the private publisher of Coarse Fisherman magazine more than 30 years ago, David went on to publish several leading angling publications including Match Fishing, Pole Fishing, Coarse Fishing Answers, Total Carp, Advanced Carp Fishing, Total Sea Fishing and Total FlyFisher.
Drennan has added two highly respected anglers to its ever-impressive portfolio. The first is England Veteran Joe Roberts from Northamptonshire, a long-serving member of the Kamasan Starlets squad who has also coached the England Disabled, Veterans and Juniors on a regular basis. He is now a successful member of the England Veterans himself with several section winning medals under his belt. Joe is a great all-rounder and particularly well known for his bream and skimmer prowess on both pole and feeder.
