Practically wore my VHS copy out.

Re: passion for angling
I'll ask this question on Monster Myths here.
When both Anglers got a bit despondant at not being able to catch fish, Bob starts reading a book and a quote probably not from the book that Bob is reading is heard:- "It's as if the lake is haunted, The carp have become ghosts;"!
Can anyone tell me if this quote is from a book? and if so what is the title? and who is the author please?
Thanks in advance, I'd really like to read or buy the book if it is from one.

I recognise Paul's pictures of the Longford and lost my only salmon I hooked under the wooden bridge!

Does anybody know what book it was from? I can't remember if it's was from obsessions or not.

I dont think it is from any book, its just what he felt at the time.
There is no peace on earth like the peace of fishing in the early mornings

Re: passion for angling
That's a shame. That reading and the APFA music in the background. I thought to myself "If that's from a book then I have to read it". I must just be yearning for a bloody good read.Julian wrote:Kingfisher wrote:Kingfisher wrote:I'll ask this question on Monster Myths here.

Re: passion for angling
Passion for Angling was a one off and cannot be repeated. Can anyone advise me where I can buy the DVD version please?
