Book Description Condition: new. (Hardcover, 1990 ). 1990 1st edition. 8vo (160 x 240mm). Pp176. Colour and b/w photographs. Lengthy introduction by Hugh Falkus. Blue boards, spine titled in gilt. Fine new copy in dust-wrapper. Very few women go fishing, but many of them number amongst the most successful of anglers. Wilma Paterson and Peter Behan investigate. "It has long been a source of irritation, and sometimes amusement, to male salmon fishers that women, a very small group among those who angle for the king of fishes, account for an extraordinary number of the biggest ones caught. Worse still, women also seem to be able to catch salmon when men cannot, often in bizarre circumstances. Thirdly, the statistics show that some of the most phenomenal catches of salmon have been achieved by women, (and finally, that it is) three women hold the most coveted salmon fishing records". .
