Book First Edition
Lyne, Rebecca (illustrator). (Hardcover, 2008 ). 2008 1st edition. 4to (195 x 252mm). Pp158. Colour photographs, b/w illustrations by Rebecca Lyne. Black boards, spine titled in gilt. Smells musty, spotting to end-paper, damp marks to boards and rear of dust-wrapper but very good. This book "provides you with all the information you are likely to need. Covers the lures themselves, tackle and techniques. Contains chapters on using lures to catch pike, zander, chub, perch and other coarse fish species, as well as salmon, trout and sea trout. Considers boat fishing, advanced big-water trolling, sea fishing and big game fishing. Discusses jerkbait fishing, rubber jigs and lures, lightweight lure fishing the use of hybrid lures". Contributions by James Holgate and Gord Burton on lure-fishing for pike in large waters, Dave Steuart on spinning for salmon, particularly in South Country rivers, Fred J.Taylor on spinning for trout, and David Bird on lure fishing for big-game species. Very strong on pike fishing but with good sections on light-tackle spinning for other species, and with much on Barrie's fishing adventures abroad, especially on Lake Nasser and in Australia and South America. The foreword is by John Wilson. .
