Angling for some answers? Turn to any page to discover fascinating, fishy facts & quotes. B&W drawings; 5x8 inches, 160 pgs.
'Do you think fishing is going out of fashion' Think again. Old-time angler Ernest Hemingway, fishing fatale Dame Diana Rigg, professional line spinner Paul Whitehouse & catch of the day Grace Kelly have all been reeled in by the tempting bait of this slippery sport. What with the thrill of the chase, the excuse to escape 'from the pressures of life' and the eternal promise of a fine fish supper at the other end, you'd be hard pushed not to fall hook, line & sinker too.
Angling for some answers' MANY facts await the watery depths of the pescetarian mind.
A COUPLE QUOTES:
"Fly fishing...a cheerer of the spirits, a tranquilliser of the mind, a calmer of unquiet thoughts, a diverter of sadness." --Henry Wotton, 19th century English angler
"A fishing pole is a stick with a hook at one end and a fool at the other." --Samuel Johnson
