Fred Foster was the acknowledged master of modern ledgering techniques, including quiver tipping and touch ledgering, by which anglers can come to terms with even the shyest and most difficult fish. While it contains much to interest the most practised exponent of this delicate and sensitive art, his book is intended principally to give to less experienced anglers the expertise which conventional beginners' guides fail to impart but without which consistent success is impossible on today's ever more heavily fished waters." (Publisher's blurb)."...will benefit all anglers, tyros and experts." (Sunday Telegraph)."This book offers experienced and budding match anglers a great deal of information and must be considered a good investment." (Dave Burr, Angling).Contents include:- Foreword by Colin Graham; The development of a modern technique; The tackle for tipping; Setting up and casting with the swing tip; Basic baits and fishing technique; Bites, strikes and 'twitching'; 'On the drop' and the countdown technique; The swing tip in running water and the 'bouncing bomb' technique; Alternatives to the swing tip; Final thoughts and summary; Index., Festpreisangebot, [LT: FixedPrice], Bestes Angebot, [LT: BestOffer], Non-Fiction Subject: Sports, Original/Facsimile: Original, Year Printed: 1978, Language: English, Modified Item: No, Binding: Hardback, Place of Publication: London.
