Etat : new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Paperback, 2010). (1997) 2010 2nd edition reprint. 8vo paperback (140 x 209mm). Ppviii,312. Colour photographs throughout, b/w illustrations, bibliography. Very good second-hand paperback. Think like a trout - trout psychology for anglers. This is a new, updated edition of this useful book which was originally entitled Reading the Water. This new edition has been completely revised and boasts hundreds of explanatory photographs showing real fishing situations, with trout lies marked in. Dave Hughes' real subject is trout psychology with regard to the life they lead and the environment they live in. The author "covers every water type - riffles, runs, pools, flats, pocket water, bank water - to pinpoint how to dissect each type to find trout. You'll learn how trout seek shelter from [the] current, protection from predators, the right temperatures and oxygen levels, and food supplies. Understanding what the water can teach will help you know where and how to look to find and catch trout on any creek, stream, and river." All the information in this book is directly applicable to the British Isles, and pretty well all the stretches of water presented for discussion might just as well be on this side of the Atlantic. A good read with a lot of material from Hughes' own experiences. A useful book of great interest to any river aficionado. Chapters include:- Needs of trout; Structure of a stream; Trout foods; Trout lies; Reading riffles; Finding trout in runs; Anatomy of a pool; The challenge of fishing flats; Probing pocket water; Trout lies along the banks; Special techniques for mountain creeks; Classic freestone trout streams; Tackle and tactics for large freestone rivers; Meadow streams and spring creeks; Tailwater trout. .…

Blue paper-covered boards, spine titled in gilt. Fine new copy in dust-wrapper. Another good book from Ed Engle, this time giving advice for catching trout on those days when they just don't want to play along. "What do you do when your usual tactics don't work, when your dependable flies let you down, when the water's acting funny? What do you do when your best attempts to match the hatch and make drag-free-drift presentations fail? Ed Engle has been a staple of Rocky Mountain West fishing for many years and has found the best solutions to challenges that vex fly anglers everywhere. He shares what he has learned in straightforward, no-nonsense lessons for finding and taking even the toughest trout. From techniques to try when the river is dirty to tips on using familiar fly patterns in unusual ways, Engle breaks down the unique strategies he has developed over the years. He may add a lift to the end of a dead drift to induce a strike. He may fish spent spinners as attractors. He may try a new take on a classic technique like the Fothergill nymphing technique and Leisenring Lift or experiment with something more cutting-edge like Czech nymphing. Engle shows how he has let go of preconceived notions to allow the trout and the river to inform his fishing. And he shares these simple, easy-to-pick-up lessons so you can turn an otherwise uneventful day on the water into a success." Chapters include:- Nymphing; Attractor flies; Tight-line tactics; Meadow streams; Catching difficult trout; High-water strategies; Small-stream finesse; Oddities. .…

Neuware - - The vicious conflict (1964-79) that brought Robert Mugabe to power in Zimbabwe - Expert coverage of the war, its historical context, and its aftermath - Descriptions of guerrilla warfare, counterinsurgency operations, and actions by units like Grey's Scouts Amid the colonial upheaval of the 1960s, Britain urged its colony in Southern Rhodesia (modern-day Zimbabwe) to grant its black residents a greater role in governing the territory. The white-minority government refused and soon declared its independence, a move bitterly opposed by the black majority. The result was the Rhodesian Bush War, which pitted the government against black nationalist groups, one of which was led by Robert Mugabe. Marked by unspeakable atrocities, the war ended in favor of the nationalists.…

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2010). 2010 1st edition. Folio (222 x 286mm). Ppx,210. Colour photographs of flies, b/w illustrations. Black boards, spine titled in gilt. DVD laid in (2 hours duration). Very good in used dust-wrapper. Michael Radencich, salmon fly tyer extraordinaire, presents twenty strategically chosen patterns. Having progressed through all twenty, the keen student will have learned all the elements of the traditional salmon fly and will be quite capable of tying anything in the genre. Each chapter successively presents patterns that are more and more complex.Chapter one introduces very simple Spey and Dee styles, strip wing flies with only a few elements per fly. The next chapters cover simple upright wing flies, full feather wing flies and married wing styles. A chapter focuses on flies with multiple body divisions and another is devoted to Traherne's exquisite (and challenging) Victorian classics. Radencich gives full details on substituting modern materials for those which have become expensive or unobtainable in recent times. The book ends up with modern patterns that are in turn beautiful and difficult to tie. Once you've mastered these 20, you'll be able to tie any classic salmon pattern. A DVD is included, further explaining some of the points in the book. . …
