Magic Moments

A wonderful book which at the very least the reader will be taken into the world of the leading edge of specialist angling to be entertained with stories of fish that many can only dream of.

Both of the fishing partners Phil Smith and Stef Horak appreciate that there are many differing views to fishing so in order to widen the scope of material for the reader they have invited four successul friends to put their views into print giving even greater chance that the reader will be able to find a situation similar to one he has encountered.

The book is not intended to instruct but the reader will no doubt see situations that they can relate to and then apply them to their own water.
