Falkus and Buller's Freshwater Fishing: A Book of Tackles and Techniques with Some Notes on Various Fish, Fish Recipes, Fishing Safety and Sundry Other Matters - Hardcover
In this book of practical information and advice, the authors are as familiar with the history of fishing tackle as they are with modern developments in fish biology. Every item is derived from their own first-hand angling experience. Throughout the book there are frequent quotations from angling literature, ancient and modern, chosen for the value of the ideas expressed. Part 1 covers the fish, and part 2 the rigs, tackles and methods that can be used for their capture. The emphasis is on British species and methods, but there is also reference to American ideas applicable in this country.

"The first copies of this edition wre printed on unintentionally flimsy quality paper. A few hundred of these were sold before they could be recalled. A new print run on higher quality paper was rushed out. The two issues can be distinguished by the fact that the former has an overall thickness, including covers, of about 33-34mm, while the latter, again including covers, is notably wider at about 45mm.Falkus expressed his contempt for the first issue by referring to it as 'The Bronco Edition,' referring to a well-known brand of cheap toilet tissue." (Beazley and Hatton in "The Books of Fred Buller," Classic Angling, May 2006). Not nearly as bad as the authors made out - actually 32mm in thickness. . Seller Inventory # 21518
