I noticed that M&W are on later with another episode of their new series, 'Gone Fishing'. I'm not into fishing but do enjoy these programmes.

Just wondered what they listen to in the car while travelling to have a few days out there fishing? This could be a favourite; what other fish related tracks would you add for them?

 

I think Bob likes a bit of soul. He was singing Ghetto Child last series.

Great suggestions so far - really love this one, an old soul pack winner for me.

Nice. It was actually listening to this while painting the hallway this afternoon that gave me the idea for the thread!

 

 

 

Maybe a little bit contentious , 

 

Thanks for chipping in people (see what I did there @De-to 😉). Plenty more fish related tracks in the sea still to come I hope.... 🤦🏻‍♂️

Something from Tony Troutman?

Marlin Shaw - Waders in The Water

Mike McDonald - Cod Knows 

or why not Melvin Davis - Find a quiet Plaice

Or Wales Wallace

If we add

Cod Bless The Child by Billie Holliday

A Plaice in the Sun by Stevie Wonder

and You Set my Sole on Fire by Edwin Starr we'll have enough for an album (the Compleat Angler?)

Sadly I'm maxed out on reactions for the day it seems. But good to see the reference to the Fat Fish label earlier, and linked to that , the Leon Haywood track from @Mickyfinn above.

So here's Leon on Fat Fish:

 

 

How’s about this un’....👍

Good spot. Wonder if that was George Clinton slipping that one in, given the Funkadelic track (Fish, chips and sweat) that @De-to posted earlier? Impressive writing team with him alongside Holland and Dozier.

Not heard that before, love it. It feels like it would be something Bob Mortimer might be whistling as he takes another distracted tumble.

Nice album. I'm guessing that's a lemon sole (anybody know their fish?). Clever choice of image compared to the sultry sexual covers you often see. 👍

Sonny Fishback - Heart Breaking Man,
Mighty Hannibal - Fishing Pole,
Maurice Jackson - Lucky Fellow (Lakeside) 
Blue Sharks - These Things Will Keep Me Loving You

and the best one, Universal Mind - Something Fishy Going On!

Good titles, not familiar with those, and excellent track in the image. Posted earlier in the list by @Owd Codger too.  

I'm off Salmon fishing in Scotland in October and we'll be mostly listening to "Sole" on the way up and hoping to catch them using a "Superfly"! We'll certainly be "Wading In The Water" and hope my line doesn't get "Caught Up" or "Wrapped Tied and Tangled"

Jackie Ross - Shellfish one

May need a boat to catch one of these

Hold on; surely there are more to come??

 

Pretty much anything by this guy qualifies:

 

Often recorded song by many blues artists this seems a bit more modern and more to my taste.

 

''Going Fishin" Buster Benton.

 

Anyone mentioned the obvious one for Salmon fishers?

Wade In Water
