Favourite book...

[Peter Jacobs]

The Deepening Pool by Chris Yates is a pretty good read too.

The first chapter from the fishing hut on the Hampshire Avon I always enjoy reading and re reading.

I fished there there some years ago with Nigel and Ron and we all gathered for lunch in that hut. Think I wrote about the day too . . . .

Jeeze, I just searched for that and it was 2003, that's getting on for 10 years ago, don't time fly

Another good fluff-flinging book is Trout From The Hills by Ian Niall and relates his fishing exploits around the mountain lakes of Snowdonia.

Thanks Terry, it was a difficult day but not as bad as the following day where the 3 of us took a boat on the harbour at Christchurch after the Mullet . . . . . . .

"My fishing days and ways" by John Martin the "Trent Otter", allways an unseen presence to me when I,m on the Trent.

"Mr Crabtree goes fishing" inspirational to any young lad in the fifties and onwards.

"Within the streams" John Hillaby, a must for any northern angler living in what may have been an industrual area, he really takes you out of it to where you long to be.
