ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1980). 1980 1st edition. 4to (190 x 252mm). Pp208. Colour plates, maps, illustrations, fawn end-papers. Green boards, spine titled in gilt. Minor faults (inscription / slight browning) but good-plus in slightly used, price-clipped dust-wrapper. ".The salmon fishing on these rivers is renowned - and rightly so: in spite of drift-netting at sea and heavy overfishing of the Atlantic feeding grounds, the salmon still run in their thousands into the headwaters to complete their life-cycle. Only constant vigilance by landowners, local authorities and anglers will ensure that this natural cycle continues. This book is divided into two sections: the first part describes the rivers themselves, their characteristics, the nature of their course and their history. The narrative is spiced with snatches of songs, poems and character sketches, including accounts of some epic contests between fish and men from years past. The second part provides guidance for the angler on fishing the rivers - the author is well qualified to provide this, having devoted his life to angling for salmon and having achieved fame as one of the great salmon fishers of his generation. Nobody knows more about these four rivers than John Ashley Cooper. He has fished many beats on each river and known their pools for 45 years. This book is a most valuable introduction to the best Scottish waters for the first-time visitor and occasional salmon angler, as well as a source of pleasure and instruction for the more experienced fisherman." .…

The more the angler acquires increasing skills, the more he or she becomes aware of further subtleties on which to ponder. That is the fascination of salmon fishing.

The second half of the book is composed of chapters dealing with the techniques of angling and rivercraft. .Ashley-Cooper covers such subjects as casting, controlling the water-speed of the fly, playing and landing fish, the care and choice of hooks, wading and boat fishing. He concludes with an encouraging list of salmon, weighing 50 pounds or more, caught in British waters." Contents include:- Conundrums and questions; Enemies of the salmon; Water and air temperature; Water height and strength; Effects of light; Types of river; Reading a river; Casting; Controlling the water-speed of a fly; Playing fish; Landing fish; Salmon that are lost; The dry-fly; Wading; Boat fishing; Riverside repairs; Hooks; Big fish from British rivers; Tall but true. .…
