Alfred Jardine

Pike and Perch - with Notes on Record Pike and a Chapter on the Black Bass, Murray Cod and Other Sporting Members of the Perch Family Alfred Jardine

Introduction: In preparing the volume on Pike and Perch Fishing for the anglers library, the editors have availed themselves of the labours of a thoroughly practical angler of of long and varied experience. Perhaps there is no one living who has had better knowledge than Mr Jardine of how, when and where to take these sporting fish; and he has made it his study to supply useful information and describe the latest and best tackle rather than to allure the general reader with a mere addition to the copious literature on angling. The contents are extensively illustrated throughout with much of the information still being useful and practical today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
