Clouds of mist rising from a deserted river in the early morning. Sparkling water and a distant angler casting in the afternoon sunlight. The excitement of the day's first bite. Freshwater fishing provides the opportunity for both contemplation and excitement, the angler pitting his wits against his quarry in the midst of a beautiful natural landscape. Tales from the River Bank examines the art, of fishing from a fresh perspective. In this book, and the BBC television series which it accodipanies, John Bailey shows how, with a greater understanding of the behaviour and biological make-up of different types of fish, it is possible to become a more intuitive and successful angler.
