New Walker Book called 'Fishing With Walker'

[Mark]

I had an email from Peter Maskell today saying the new Richard Walker books have finally arrived so I have just ordered my copy.

This is the email I received from Peter a couple of weeks ago. I can't find any advertising of the book anywhere so I am not sure if they are available to everyone yet.

I’m delighted to inform you of a new Dick Walker book, Fishing With Walker. Fishing With Walker contains articles from Fishing Magazine and Angling Times, none of which have appeared in book form before. There are sections on all the major species and how to catch them, tactics, hard hitting and side splitting comments on a wide range of topical issues and much, much more. Many of the supporting photographs have never previously been published. The 197-page hardback book is limited to just 500 numbered and signed copies.

Best Wishes

The book finally arrived today, after a quick flick through there are many pictures that I have never seen before. One that stands out is Dick with a woolly hat on with a pom pom holding a bream in each hand. It looks like he is fishing in a match.

I'm reading another book at the minute 'Lost in a Quiet World' by Paul Cook so FWW will have to wait for a while.

Spoilt for choice, they both sound magnificent!

Peter Maskell has asked me to put the following on the forum.

THERE’S a special treat in store for Dick Walker fans with the launch of a brand new book by the Maestro.
Fishing With Walker contains articles from Fishing magazine and Angling Times – none of which have appeared in book form before.
There are sections on all the major species and how to catch them; tactics, hard-hitting and side-splitting comments on a wide range of topical issues and much, much more. Many of the supporting photographs have never previously been published.
Discover which fish was Dick’s favourite species, how he came face to face with a 7lb perch, when barbel bite best, the myth of Redmire and the mystery of the monsters of the Great Ouse.
There are controversial comments on the lack of angling on TV, the close season debate, groundbaiting and shotting patterns.
Joining him on the bankside are his closest fishing pals, Pete Thomas, Fred J Taylor, his brother Ken and their cousin, Joe.
No angler, whether he fishes purely for relaxation, or looks upon the sport as an exciting challenge, can fail to find a treasure trove of information and entertainment between the covers of Fishing With Walker.
