Now there's a man who *really* liked fishing

[sand flea]

In life, he was never happier than when catching fish in his favourite river.

And after his death, Pete Hodge was determined to help his fellow anglers continue to enjoy tight lines too.

So much so that he arranged for his remains to be turned into bait so he could sleep with the fishes.
