A practical guide to how, when and where of angling along the South African coastline - has been fully revised and updated to offer the most recent information regarding salt water fishing in the region. With the inexperienced angler in mind, the initial chapters offer expert advice on understanding the influence of nature on the sea and its fish, buying and maintaining tackle, knot-tying and tackle assembling. Thereafter, drawing on over 30 years of experience, the author discusses rock-and-surf, estuarine, inshore and deep-sea angling, provides details of 20 popular fish species, and gives careful instruction on the tackle and techniques required to catch them. Thirteen area guides supply commentary on prime fishing spots around the South African coast, as well as the type of fishing available at each. Written in an easy to read style, and generously illustrated, it contains all the know-how necessary for the novice to cast for target species with confidence and for the more seasoned angler to improve his fishing skills and catch rate.
