SPIN-FISHING FOR SEA TROUT: A COMPLETE GUIDE TO TACKLE, METHODS AND TACTICS. By Gary Webster.

2008 1st edition. 4to. Pp156. Colour photographs and b/w line illustrations throughout.

A complete guide to spinning for sea-trout, distilled from fifty years' practical experience in the UK, North America and Scandinavia. "Everything you need to know about sea trout behaviour and physiology, as well as the tackle and tactics you will require for taking them during different seasons and in different kinds of water... Spoons, spinners and crankbaits... [as well as appropriate techniques of presentation] ...casting, harling, trolling, or even fishing through the ice. ...Rivers, tailwaters, estuaries, coastlines and lakes [and] sound advice on how an angler can adjust ...tactics according to changes in the light, the temparature, water clarity and the wind." An interesting and useful book, lent a certain novelty by the fact that the author lives in Northern Sweden, so lots of interesting pictures of fishing in the (relatively salt-free) Baltic and the Gulf of Bothnia.
