What a great forum! I was after some tips on traditional coarse fishing books and what a great set of recommendations there are.
Like a lot of fly fisherman up north I started on maggots and worms on the local river and canal up here near in calderdale. Over the last couple of years I've been reading lots of Arthur Ransome, Pritt and Walbran and trotting worm seemed to be their version of czech nymphing, and thats when the centrepin bug bit hard.
