  Fishing on the Edge by Leigthon McDonnell 

         
   
The Little Egret Press is proud to invite you to order  this fine new publication by author Leighton McDonnell.

 "Fishing on the Edge" reflects the catholic interests of the author and methods that represent enjoyment, in particular surface, float and dry fly fishing as well as a fascinating variation of normal ledgering technique. Big carp, perch, bass, trout and chub are all well covered, introducing important, well researched, new and original factors which seem to have effects on fish reactions, movements and appetite.

Illustrated with many black & white and colour photographs, the book recounts the best bits of over 25 years of angling which any reflective angler could not fail to benefit from.

 

About the author.
Leighton is a Chartered Surveyor and Estate Manager for the City of London. But despite a busy career still manages 4 evening trips a week in the Summer and 3 in the Winter.
He started writing articles at the age of 26, despite a dearth of coarse fishing in South Wales at the time and although they have been irregular ever since (but usually well received) Leighton is one of the few writers to cover coarse, sea and game.

The author rarely feels the need to use more than one rod and would love to shoot those that stitch the bank up with several. Horribly impatient Leighton has always been curious regarding methods which highlight behaviour, whether this be rigs, baits, weather analysis, moon or dowsing.

Like most specialist anglers, Leighton blanks regularly but loves the feeling of self esteem engendered by catching well and that resultant state of tranquillity .
Outside interests include black & white photography, grand opera, punk rock and tobacco.
