"All the newcomer to pike fishing will need to know plus some ideas for established anglers.

Recent developments in tackle.

Live and deadbaiting, lure fishing, long range fishing and boat fishing.

Superb colour photographs and explanatory line-drawings.

A species which can grow to in excess of forty pounds, the pike has always been an attractive catch for anglers. This book will help build a confident approach to playing, landing and handling this often misunderstood fish.

David Batten examines the history of the species, baits, tackle and fisheries before describing, in detail, suitable tactics for pike fishing. He emphasises the need for an understanding of any new tackle used and for the careful handling of caught pike."

128 pages. Illustrated with colour photographs and line drawings throughout.
