Items related to On Fishing At Sea
'Though most of my life seems to have been spent on the banks of lakes and rivers, I have always been drawn to the sea . . .' Through twenty-two casts, Britain's best-known freshwater fisherman quits land in favour of the sea. There, he discovers the many pleasures of the coast: wild shores, unpredictable waves, the violent collision of the elements, and, of course, fish that glisten and dart beneath a never-still surface. From childhood remembrances of saltwater escapades to more recent discoveries, Chris Yates brings the sea and its many wonders to scintillating life.

Book Description Condition: new. (Paperback, 2010). (2008) 2010 paperback edition. Small 8vo paperback (130 x 178mm). Ppxii,200,x,ads. B/w chapter heading vignettes by Will Yates and Clare Hatcher. Fine new copy. Principally known as a freshwater fisherman, and long-time holder of the carp record, in his latest book, Chris Yates turns his attention to sea fishing, "and his increasing passion for [the sea's] changeable moods and habits. Remaining faithful to his fundamental angling ethic - fishing simply with the minimum of tackle and always using his old split cane carp rod - he nets a mass of singular experiences, from the quiet magic of a Dorset tide-pool to the strange delight of casting into the midnight sun off the Norwegian Island of Senja". Readable and engaging tales of a carp fisherman addressing the question of shore fishing for bass. This is the Penguin paperback edition of Out of the Blue: On Fishing at Sea, first published in hardback in 2008. The first edition is still available in our catalogue, stock no. 20723. "One day Chris Yates's books will be available on prescription from your doctor, as an antidote to modern-day ailments with more power to soothe and subdue than any tranquilizer" (Books of the Year, Angler's Mail).
