Russell thoroughly enjoyed his first fishing experience yesterday at the CLA game fair and is keen to take this further. Its his birthday in a couple of weeks. Can someone suggest a good fishing book for him. Suitable for his age but which perhaps gives an overview of all the different types of fishing there is to whet his appetite for the sport and give a taste of equipment and types of fish etc etc.

Absolutely.......I am on my second copy, the first from the 70`s is long gone. It is however very old fashioned.

Mr Crabtree ? Absolutely spot on. Mr Venables's book is a must.
