Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Charles Jardine (illustrator). First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Days and Nights of Game Fishing. Slight shelf wear to top edge of D/J. Bill Currie is a fly fisherman of outstanding skill - and often astonishing luck - who has that rare gift of being able to communicate his passion for the sport through his writing. In this book he invites the reader to accompany him on game fishing expeditions of all kinds. Whether they are to catch mid-winter salmon the the Helmsdale, to beguile the hard-fighting Hebridean brown trout in high summer or to stalk they shy seatrout at dusk in a Scottish autumn, they are described with graphic power that will appeal to all who share the author's enthusiasm for fly fishing. Catching wild fish in wild places is the theme of the book and the lonely moors and mountains of Scotland provide the setting. Quite apart from the information and practical advice which enrich these angling experiences, Bill Currie manages to convey that sense of excitement and anticipation which every fisherman knows.
