The English Gentleman's Good Fishing Guide

This witty and entertaining book is a tongue-in-cheek guide to the traditions, etiquette and eccentricities of angling from the perspective of the quintessential English gentleman. Rather than focusing solely on fishing techniques, it blends practical advice on tackle, clothing, fish and river manners with humorous observations about fishing culture, ghillies, conservation and the characters encountered on the bank. Packed with dry British humour and self-mockery, it is an enjoyable read for anglers who appreciate the lighter side of the sport as much as the fishing itself. It is the sequel to "The English Gentleman's Good Shooting Guide". B&w artwork throughout. Very good condition. Softcover, 20.5cm x 13.5cm, 92 pages.
