In that time the author of this book has been regularly contributing articles for a wide variety of angling publications. Here is a collection of the author's best and most thought-provoking written work. This frank and sometimes controversial collection cannot fail to give newcomers and old hands alike an appreciation of how pike fishing has developed over the past twenty-five years, with many useful and practical insights that are still highly relevant to the modern pike fishing scene."
