Synopsis

Introduction: In preparing the volume on Pike and Perch Fishing for the anglers library, the editors have availed themselves of the labours of a thoroughly practical angler of of long and varied experience. Perhaps there is no one living who has had better knowledge than Mr Jardine of how, when and where to take these sporting fish; and he has made it his study to supply useful information and describe the latest and best tackle rather than to allure the general reader with a mere addition to the copious literature on angling. The contents are extensively illustrated throughout with much of the information still being useful and practical today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The pike, or lucit, is a mercenary ;O ranglers seem among themselves to vary ;H eloves no streams, but hugs the silent deeps, And eats all hours, and yet no house he keeps. THEOPHILUS FRANCK, A.D. 1658. THE Pike, or Jack, is a species of the Teleostean fishes classed as Malacopterygii abdominales, from the ventral fins being abdominal in position. Only one species of pike Esox lucius is found in the waters of Great Britain, or known in Europe, it being the typical representative of theE socida family, in which the dorsal fin is set far back in the body and nearly opposite or perpendicular to the anal fin.
