Confessions of a Shooting Fishing Man
Author: Laurence Catlow
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781873674451
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
When Laurence Catlow, a classics master at a Cumbrian boarding school, sees a beautiful pheasant in flight, he wants to reach for his gun. In this diary of his sporting year, he asks himself, between days on the local rivers and shoots, why this is so. His answers are surprising, controversial and convincing. They provide an articulate response to the anti-fieldsports arguments, and he presents them in an entertaining, frank and amusing manner. Throughout 1995, Laurence's diary records his hopes of buying some precipitous shooting ground in the Pennines, his fishing days on the Eden, Wharfe and other rivers, the arrival of a second gundog and days spent together on shoots. All this activity is interspersed with Laurence's quest for his true motives in killing what he most loves. He looks at foxhunting, vegetarianism, man as a hunter, man as created in God's image and man as a creature doomed, himself, to die. Nearly 25 years later, this diary remains highly topical, thought-provoking and original. yet its tone is also very human and it comes from the pen of a true nature-lover.

Greased Line Fishing
Author: Jock Scott
Publisher: Frank Amato Publications
ISBN: 9780936608198
Category : Salmon fishing
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Explains in great detail the most pleasant method to use when fly fishing for steelhead. Because it was originally published in England as a method for taking Atlantic salmon, we asked Bill McMillan, noted Northwest greased line steelhead angler, to write a long introduction explaining how the method works for summer-and winter-run steelhead. Included are 42 illustrations and four color plates of the best steelhead and Atlantic salmon flies. So thorough and contains so many interesting technique ideas that you will want to reread it.

Do Fish Feel Pain?
Author: Victoria Braithwaite
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191613967
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
While there has been increasing interest in recent years in the welfare of farm animals, fish are frequently thought to be different. In many people's perception, fish, with their lack of facial expressions or recognisable communication, are not seen to count when it comes to welfare. Angling is a major sport, and fishing a big industry. Millions of fish are caught on barbed hooks, or left to die by suffocation on the decks of fishing boats. Here, biologist Victoria Braithwaite explores the question of fish pain and fish suffering, explaining what we now understand about fish behaviour, and examining the related ethical questions about how we should treat these animals. She asks why the question of pain in fish has not been raised earlier, indicating our prejudices and assumptions; and argues that the latest and growing scientific evidence would suggest that we should widen to fish the protection currently given to birds and mammals.
