All pike anglers need a knowledge of their quarry and the best methods for catching it. This book provides both. All aspects and methods of pike fishing are covered: live-baiting, dead-baiting, lure fishing, river fishing, and piking in all types of stillwater; and since the book is divided into the months of one year, each method is adapted to take account of seasonal conditions. For the novice piker, there is a treasure trove of knowledge and advice; for the expert, there are scores of tips for refining technique and, ultimately for putting more fish in the net. AUTHOR: Mick Brown is one of the UK's most respected predator anglers. He has eleven pike of over thirty pounds to his credit. He has contributed to a number of books and written many articles for the angling press, including Improve Your Coarse Fishing and Angling Times. 80 b/w photos
