Book by Dave Higgins

[waldof]

Hi All
I'am trying to track down a book on Angling in the North East by I think it was by Dave Higgins who I seem to remember was in BOTAC and wrote a column for the Chronicle.
Any help greatly appreciated

i still have a copy of the north east angling guide compiled by frank johnson but the sea angling section was written by dave higgins who at the time (possibly early 70's) was the press secretary of the northern federation of sea anglers. most probably the book you are on about. covered fresh and sea , tweed to tees. cost one pound at time and doubt if its still in print.
regards andy

I think, at the time, Dave was also Sec. of Tynemouth S.A.C.
Used to live on 'The Crescent' or there-abouts if I remember rightly.
