When Kevin Maddocks first wrote this classic on the pursuit of UK and European catfish, they were only present in a handful of UK waters. Now more widespread, the Wels catfish is the target of hundreds of anglers in Britain. Half of this book is devoted to fishing in the UK, while the other half is about fishing for catfish in France, Germany and Spain. A good book by a knowledgeable angler and still well worth a read for anyone looking to target the species, here or abroad. Chapters include:- PART 1: Catfish in the UK - Introduction; Baits; Tackle and tactics; Waters where catfish can be caught; Stocking and the future; Catfish Conservation Group; PART 2: Catfish on the Continent - Introduction; Tackle and tactics; France; Germany; Spain.
