Synopsis

The sport of coarse fishing is one of the world's most popular and learning to be successful, knowing how to judge the water and the effect of the weather, understanding which bait to use and why, tricking the likely catch and its size, and the best time of day or night to fish can all take years to perfect and properly understand.

Armed with tips and hints from lifelong sportsmen, this practical guide will tell you all you need to know to begin to fish like a pro.
