Goes Fishing

In its original print, back
in the early seventies, this was the first
fishing book I ever owned. It is the book
that taught me all of the basic skills of
fishing and I have never forgotten them
to this day. Although first published over
thirty years ago, much of the content is
still very relevant today.
The book takes you on a fishing
trip with Peter and his father for each
freshwater species. It sums up the simplicity
of fishing in the days before bit alarms
and bivvies. With its beautiful line drawings
and wonderful descriptions, it is a book
which every angler should have on their
book shelves.
Highly recommended.
