Although there is a real and widespread interest in the delicate work of clear water worm fishing, few writers have equalled Sidney Spencer’s grasp of this fascinating branch of angling. Originally published in the thirties, and re-published more recently as the second part of the author’s ‘Way of Fishing’ (now out of print), this book shows how skill in river-craft and precise technique are both essential to ensure success.
