Book Description Condition: new. (Hardcover, 1978). (1970) 1978 2nd edition reprint. Small 8vo (120 x 198mm). Pp136. B/w illustrations by W.J. Pezare. Pictorial laminated boards. A little foxing but a very good copy. Written in Wiggin's usual readable style and far from simply a dry how-to-do-it manual. "In this new edition, Maurice Wiggin sets out the basic techniques of fishing from the shore, fishing from boats and rocks, fishing from pier and jetty, and finally the thrills and rewards of estuary fishing. But he does far more than provide a lucid manual of techniques and an expert guide to tackle. Writing with admirable clarity and good humour, he communicates vividly and zestfully his own delight in this 'robust and open-hearted pursuit'. While telling the complete beginner how to go about it, he also fires him with enthusiasm to be started. Few textbooks manage to be vivacious, amusing and readable as well as highly practical and informative - but this one certainly does." Chapters include: First things first; The tools of the trade; The G.P. and the specialist; Pier and jetty fishing; Boat fishing; Rock fishing; Fishing from the shore; Estuary fishing; Afterthoughts and all that. .
