As far as ultimate leisure pursuits go, broadcaster Fiona Armstrong insists that fly-fishing is all that a busy working woman needs to wind down at the weekend. In this beginner's guide to successful fly-fishing for salmon, Fiona takes anyone hankering after exciting stretches of water through the ins and outs of how to get started in this increasingly popular pastime. The problems of simply getting to know tackle, where to get it, whether to buy it or borrow it, where to fish, when, the best company on the water, flies, clothing, safety on the water, ghillies and dramming and what about the salmon itself? When is salmon a kelt or a grilse? If any woman can explain why she adores fishing, then Fiona can and does in this guide. Full glossary of terms included. Foreword by fishing guru Bill Currie.
