Product Description

Book Description

A beautifully packaged gift book for anyone interested in fishing

Product Description

Another fishing book? Not quite. Although 101 Golden Rules of Fishing delivers enough tips and tricks to satisfy beginners and experienced fish smiths alike, it also dwells on the less tangible aspects of angling - luck, ghosts, catching a monster, the angeler's perfect car, how to blank (catch nothing), how to deal with an angry bailiff, fishing somewhere that's never been fished before, preparing to make your last ever cast...as if you ever could.

Angling isn't a hobby, a sport, a science or a skill; it isn't even an art. It's a mystery, and one that takes a lifetime to unravel. 101 Golden Rules of Fishing is the perfect travelling companion for that journey - wide-eyed enough to love talking about every aspect of fishing, wise enough to know that in the end, all anglers are happy fools.

The tips broadly break down into four categories covering environment, practical tips, equipment and golden nuggets of fishing wit and wisdom. Illustrated throughout with delightful and original artwork, this charming little book will apppeal to anglers of all ages. Attractively packaged, 101 Golden Rules of Fishing is the ideal gift for any one that has ever tried to catch fish, or simply pondered the prospect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fishing might actually be fun...no, honest., 29 Jun 2007

Tony (London) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 101 Golden Rules of Fishing: Rob Beattie (Hardcover)

I don't know the first thing about fishing and am really not that interested in it, but I bought this for my dad and thought I'd just skim a few pages before wrapping it. I ended up reading the whole thing. It's beautifully illustrated and really well written, making an otherwise dull pastime seem almost worth participating in. Actually I think I might go with my dad next time he goes fishing. It's not too technical but full of what I assume is good advice. And I really liked all the non-technical pages like 'Ghosts' which demonstrate the author's love for fishing and confirm it's really not about the number of fish you catch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dip in and Out as you please., 14 May 2009

SCM (Victoria, Australia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: 101 Golden Rules of Fishing: Rob Beattie (Hardcover)

I'm not sure this is a book that is intended to be read cover to cover in a straight forward fashion. While it does have a clear structure, beginning with fishing tackle and such like, it seems to work best for me as a book to bounce around in, reading a section here and a section there more or less as the fancy takes. In that sense it's a bit like fishing itself - I'll try here - not working - lets go elsewhere. I think that's the best way to fish and I think it' the best way to read this book.
The best sections are on why to fish rather than how to fish, fishing as an all encompassing event, not just a process that lead to the catching of fish.
There is enough information here to be valuable to existing fisher folk and more than enough entertainment for those who have yet to be hooked.

5.0 out of 5 stars Geat little book
Brilliant little book. Needs to be dipped into rather than read all the way through. Really funny in parts and succeeds in keeping anglers from taking themselves too seriously.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Beautiful Book
This book looks great, the colour scheme and the paper used, the size and the fact it is a hard back. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars 101 fishing rules
If you are an avid fisherman / woman then this book is well worth reading. Lots of common sense tips which you might not otherwise think of to help you to catch fish. Recommended.
