Max Garth R.I.P.

Just found out that Max has passed away peacefully a few days ago  ...Sad as he was a great bloke and pioneer of northern rocks with immense skill and knowledge of all thing fishing.

Rest in peace Max and hope they are biting up there !

Cut my fishing teeth with my Dad up at Quobba. Garth's Rock was and still is, a legendary place.

RIP Max.
