Falkus and Buller's Freshwater Fishing

Originally published in 1975, this authoritative work has now been revised and rewritten. Part one deals with the fish themselves and Part two with fishing tackle and technique. Arranged alphabetically, the entries include natural history, habits and habitat, the cooking of fish, the history and development of tackle and the different methods of catching fish. It also covers subjects as diverse as angling literature and the effects of acid rain on fish. Hugh Falkus is a writer, naturalist and broadcaster of wildlife films. He is the author of "Salmon Fishing" and "Sea Trout Fishing". Fred Buller has written two books on pike and is the founder of two fishiing tackle firms.
