Item description from seller

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1991). 1991 1st edition. 8vo (158 x 239mm). Pp118. B/w photographs, bibliography, end-paper maps. Blue boards, spine titled in gilt. Some use and spotting to top edge, but good-plus in spine-faded dust-wrapper. A good guide to river and stillwater game and coarse fisheries in Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, Hampshire, Wilstshire and Dorset, with plenty of anecdotes and advice as to techniques. "Michael Shephard, an angler and fishing writer of great experience, discusses not only the famous rivers such as the Tamar, the Exe, the Torridge, the Taw and Avon but also a great many smaller streams which provide marvellous days. He ranges widely over the lakes and reservoirs, some famous like Blagdon and Wimbleball, but many others not so well known. Besides giving a wealth of information on where to fish and how to get there, Michael Shephard gives advice on reliable flies which can be fished at various times. He vividly recalls red-letter days on rivers and lakes and discusses the behaviour of fish found in the region, providing a detailed and vastly entertaining guide to the fishing in this beautiful part of Britain." .
