The Nottingham Style of Float Fishing and Spinning - Course Fishing for Preessionals and Amatuers (Paperback)

This is a really interesting book and is one in a series of books for professional and amateur fishermen. Sold as a series or as individuals these books cover every spectrum of specialist fishing. The story in this book is from 1882 and truly tells the tale of the conditions of our society, the quality of the rivers and what it meant to have a rare opportunity to simply go fishing. It covers everything from the rods you can use, the bait and how to cook and clean the fish. These fish seen as only working class food now appear as top of our restaurant menus as gourmet food. If you have a fisherman in your family this book would be a really fantastic gift to them and a real glimpse into our history.
