What book is your Fishing Bible?

[Ddywalgi]

Hi g.ordon fishes are mentioned in the bible - I can't find anywhere to indicate where he caught them though or what bait he used.
Your luck will change g'ordon with each tide. Hopefully for the better.
My river fishing was worse than my lottery last year. I won £58 on the lottery ..:red:

[Ddywalgi]

Thank you Ian,
Mike Ladle is a household name ..
Here is his Sea Water Diary
Fly Fishing from Rocks.
I've never succeeded yet [unless you include mackerel] but it can be done.

Brilliant series of Angling stories.
Thank you.

Anthony Pearson is sought after- 1960's but the methods still apply £36 for his book - bass mostly
I adore Bass fishing ... My 6500ct mag didn't know what hit it, coupled with an apolloI 12ft ... light yet quick retrieve and always I knew what the fish was doing.
High speed reels weren't just for casting.

Another part of my Bible was the sea fishing magazine such as Total Sea Fishing and Sea Angler. It kept me informed of the latest techniques, gear and Total fishing always had a brilliant venue report.
And there was always the chance of a freebie on the cover.

I bought the codling crouch - thanks - it is a brilliant book to read and also enforces the fact that the best gear is not necessarily the best gear.
We anglers have become a fish on a hook, as we have to have the latest widgets for our dongles and carbon titanium stuff.
It is like watching christmas being pendulum cast to sea with frozen, farmed or fake bait on the hook.
Whether bait is propelled or lobbed....
Fresh bait appears to be the key.
