MATCH ANGLING. By Bill Bartles.

1972 1st edition. Small 8vo (131 x 204mm). Pp141. B/w photographs and illustrations. Brown boards.

This book "covers the full range of equipment for successful competition angling from seat baskets to squats, and with Match Angling [the author's] previous book on fishing techniques, gives a complete picture of the sport". The book divides itself princiupally into two parts, tackle and baits, and "from his highly extensive personal experience [the author] gives practical advice ...and emphasises that the do-it-yourself approach often has better results - and is cheaper - than the commercial products".
