Etat : new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (New, Paperback, 2011). 2011 1st edition. Small 8vo paperback (109 x 175mm). Pp320. B/w photographs, b/w illustrations by Kate Barham. A fine new copy. "Rosie Barham takes an affectionate sideways look at the idiosyncrasies of anglers of all disciplines, shows us the lighter side of fishing widowhood and how the experience of living alongside fishing-obsessed family and friends eventually worked in her favour." "There are tales of the unexpected, alongside the more mundane daily tasks necessary to keep a fishing household ticking along nicely. Off the Hook is mostly about seeing the funny side of life from a fishing widow's point of view and the format follows that of an almanac so that there are anecdotes for every month of the year. It is hoped that fishing widows everywhere will gain comfort from the fact that they are not alone in trying to understand the sometimes bizarre behaviour of their loved ones. Anglers also may find some insight into their own actions, since most of them seem to be blissfully unaware that their mindset is in any way unusual." Contents include:- January frosts; February blizzards; Mad as March air; April showers; Darling buds of May; Flaming June; July-kit hot?; August occasions; September in the rain; October - stranger things have happened; November - apples and wet leaves; December - Yule be sorry!; Epilogue; The French connection; Last word; Appendix - or the bits that don't fit in anywhere else.

Etat : new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (New, Hardcover, 2013). 2013 1st edition. 8vo (157 x 217mm). Pp184. Colour and b/w photographs, colour illustrations by Norman Symonds. Textured blue boards, upper board and spine titled in silver-gilt. Mint new copy in dust-wrapper. "This is a story about one of carp fishing's greatest unsung heroes, Norman Symonds, who through his business acumen purposely acquired lakes and big fish with the intention of starting a fish farm to produce quality carp for his anglers. As his interest in carp and their culture grew, Norman brought his son, Martin, into the business. This is a true and frank account of how a timber merchant came to be one of the largest providers of big fish for leisure angling in the country, almost by accident. He opened up a whole new concept for anglers wishing to catch beautiful big fish, not from private lakes but day ticket and syndicate fisheries open to all. Small wonder that today there are more magazines, more books, baits, tackle and sundries available to those who seek carp than any other freshwater species. In 50 years, starting with Dick Walker catching a 44lb (then) monster carp from Redmire pool at a time when roach were Britain's most common and popular species, the freshwater scene has completely turned around, with carp now by far the most common and popular species. My good friend, Norman Symonds, has been responsible, perhaps more than anyone else, for making that happen." (John Wilson, MBE). Chapters include:- Early days; War calls; Back in veneer; Norman and Vera's first bungalow; Marin's arrival; Norman becomes general manager; Waveney Valley Lakes; His own sawmill at last; Starting a wine cellar; Fishers Green; The caravan business; Homersfield; 26 years of happiness; Big carp; Breeding carp; Martin goes into koi; Tewin Mill; Otters; Yew Tree Lake; Council problems; Carp for the queen; Otter fencing; Tragedy for Norman; Homersfield continued; Martin talks fish farming; Epilogue.

Etat : new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (New, Hardcover, 2013). 2013 1st edition. Large 8vo (177 x 252mm). Pp392. Colour photographs, colour and b/w illustrations by Gordon Howes. Textured black boards, upper board and spine titled in silver-gilt. Fine new copy in dust-wrapper. "Finding The Time To Cast is a collection of carp stories written by the ordinary man on the bank, who has to juggle his fishing time with family and work commitments. Chris Currie became increasingly frustrated while reading carp magazines that constantly perpetuate the 'time equals fish' theory by reporting on the captures of 'names' who are able to fish full-time. He decided that it was time the average-Joe, little-known angler had their stories told, so he set about talking to them and attempted to persuade them to take part in a particular venture that he had in mind. It took over two years for Chris to find enough of the kind of people who would fit his criteria to write chapters in this book, and he found some truly entertaining characters who not only understood the concept behind the project, but who were also willing to put pen to paper to tell the angling world of their experiences. The results of their combined contributions confirm, as Chris already knew, that a lot can be achieved on very limited time, if you have the will and determination to juggle the various aspects of your life. Chris also relates his own angling tale, from when he was an eight-year-old with a special birthday present, an Argos fishing kit, on which he caught a 2lb rainbow trout - and consequently ate it for his tea - to a magnificent 44lb-plus leather; 'a special, inspiring carp from an enigmatic place'. Magic stuff!" Chapters include:- Out to pasture by Matt Eaton; Jewel of the Medway by Mark Willcocks; The lady of the manor by Jim Mathews; Perseverance (Wraysbury Two) by Dan Cleary; The grafty carper by Rick Golder; Heaven is a place on earth by Darryl Dunn; One extreme to the other by John Waller; Days like these by Shaun 'Jarvo' Jarvis; Richmond Park by Gavin Barrett; Woolpack wonder by Gordon Howes; The Clear Water Pit by Paul Wortley; Systematic by Spencer Wright; Sutton haze by John Elmer; Paradise found by Dan Chart; King of the castle by James Parry; The rock-hard syndicate by Chris Currie; Changing times by Paul Palmer; A balancing act by Dave Forward; A paradise lost by John Bird; Kingdom of rust by Jon Pack.
