  Using a unique approach to catching fish, this book should help readers outwit their prey by understanding their behaviour and learning how to predict their movements. It saves anglers hours of idleness and frustration on the river bank by following the author's tips for successful angling. The book begins by setting out in detail the principles behind detecting fish. It goes on to cover all the major coarse species - carp, barbel, pike, perch, chub and others besides - as well as the lesser-known eel and catfish. The book includes advice and practical examples on how to watch and catch fish. How is a stressed fish recognized? Where can solitary, larger female tench be found? Where do perch feed? These are just some of the many questions answered in this study into fish behaviour.
