The first section, on tackle, compares hook with hook and rod with rod, tells the reader what you need to fish, what is a good buy and what accessories will make life easier and improve success rates. In the next section are descriptions of all kinds of bait, from artificial flies to "rubby-dubby", plus advice on how to prepare bait and what to catch it with. Central to the book is an extensive guide to the fish most commonly sought by anglers in Europe and North America. There are 60 main entries, packed with facts and figures, covering 200 species of fish. Finally a chapter on techniques explains how to cast, spin, play and land and a section on "reading" the water shows the best places to fish and what to look for.
