I remember being a Pro at Manly in the early 70’s when Nev used to swing by the station in the evening after his regular fishing trips. He’d drop a bag of fish on the counter and offer them to anyone who wanted a feed. This went on for months and many took a few fish home for dinner…. until one night someone asked him how come he always got a good bagful of fish and where did he catch them. “There’s plenty down in the Murk at North Head. I always get a good feed there.” Nev revealed! R.I.P. The Owl.
  • Kenneth Bulger
    Dave Whiteman, I remember that. Never took any though. I knew where he caught them. Frank Daniels caught many black fish off North Head too.

  1. When ‘The Owl’ was at the BAS I bumped into him on a number of occasions. Sometimes, he’d turn up in a white doctor’s gown carrying all of the BAS gear. He’d usually have the cops in the station laughing and on quite a few occasions the motorist being tested would have a laugh with us. Didn’t know Neville privately but I recall him as friendly and engaging. The job needs more Neville’s these days. Rest in Peace mate.
