Author : Jaggs, Peter
ISBN : 978616-2220142
Category : Maps & Guide Books
Pages : 111
Format : ebook
Stand outside a palm-shaded wooden hut in a Thai fishing park, and do battle with a colossal Mekong Giant Catfish. See an exotic Featherback pulled from a muddy canal by a rural Thai angler in a quiet, backwater town. Share a few beers and a magnificent catch of Rohu with a few new friends, and experience a fishing competition with an angry Thai bar-girl. Catch your first double-figure Carp sitting by the banks of a cliff-lined lake near the border of Thailand and Cambodia, or cast a lure from a deserted tributary close to the Bridge over the River Kwai, with only the birds and mosquitoes for company.
Whatever your fishing preference, this country undoubtedly has it. This book will take you on an exciting journey through the diverse variety of freshwater fisheries in Thailand, and show you how to catch the incredible fish that swim in them. Peter Jaggs provides a humorous and panoramic portrait of the species, tackle, baits and waters; as well as some of the characters that the reader will encounter during his angling adventures in Thailand - the Disneyland of freshwater fishing.
'An informative and long-overdue guide to freshwater fishing in Thailand.'
JEAN-FRANCOIS HELIAS, FISHING ADVENTURES THAILAND
'Especially useful as an ebook; the unknown species you catch in Thailand can be targeted and identified right by the water's edge on your mobile phone or ebook reader.'

I bought this book as a stocking filler for my son in law. He seems pleased with it and said there is useful information in it for people unfamiliar with fishing in Thailand. The book includes B&W images of fish to be found in the country, including the Giant Catfish. The content assumes some knowledge of fishing techniques amd tackle, its not for complete beginners. Pity about the bar girl anecdotes as not all fishermen going to Thaland are sex-pats - some actually enjoy the fishing! Oh well, all in all a decent enough book which fills a gap in the market.

Author's note. Thank you for taking the trouble to review my book. Sorry you didn't enjoy the bar girl anecdotes, that's just my style of writing. Thanx again.
