Coarse Fishing by Peter Stone
Just purchased a very good copy of Coarse Fishing by Peter Stone, I could do with some help.

If you mean, Sir, that you need somewhere to pass on all these wonderful books you keep finding ... may I remind you it's nearly Christmas ?????Mark wrote:I could do with some help.

I'm sure you're joking Mark.
I used to have Peter Stones Fantastic feeder fishing but It's vanished.
God never did make a more calm, quiet, innocent recreation than angling.

Re: Coarse Fishing by Peter Stone
What I only realised recently is that this book has identical text but very different illustrations/layout (some shared photos) to a paperback called 'A Guide to Coarse Fishing' that I first encountered when I was about 12 or 13 when a mate got it (circa 1969 or 70).

I always think that FJT is very underrated today.
He's not talked about anywhere near as much as other noted anglers and angling authors from the time.
