Publisher's Synopsis
This guide to success at pike fishing embraces the tackle, rigs and techniques, and the necessary philosophical attitude. It also explores pike lore, an understanding of which enables the pike angler to exploit the pike's ecological role to his own advantage. The acid test of a good pike angler is whether he can succeed when presented with a totally new water, and the book give advice on overcoming this. Throughout the text a distinction is drawn between that which is considered important for success, and that which is the jargon of cults.
