2003 1st edition. 4to (204 x 296mm). Ppxxii,217. Colour and b/w photographs, maps. Blue boards, upper board and spine titled in gilt.

An invaluable guide to fishing in Iceland. How, where and when on over 100 rivers, where to stay, plus statistics on catches, punctuated by anecdotes of the author's own experiences. Includes a section on fishing in Greenland. "The first chapters explain how Mike came to Iceland and how his fishing experience proved to be wonderful training for Icelandic rivers. His early visits are described in some detail, with many stories. He introduces the reader to the country, covering its geography, history, wildlife and people, how the fishing is organised and what to do and not to do. He explains that the best fishing is not necessarily the most expensive. The next section of the book introduces the readers to rivers, starting at Reykjavik, and going clockwise round the Island. Naturally more attention is paid to rivers that he knows well. This section also covers Icelandic fishing for Brown Trout, Sea Trout, Char and even a short section about Greenland. Reminiscences keep breaking into the story and occasionally his tongue can be sensed in his cheek! Lastly there is a section of statistics. This will be of particular interest to the serious reader who wants to learn more about rivers, number of rods fished and facilities provided, etc. Mike has been notorious for asking questions, and the reader is offered the benefit of the answers!"
