Tight Lines

1965

This catalog, as usual,  was issued to the English speaking world of ABU fans and even Australians like me, received it and were able to read it with great joy.

Len's realistic and accurate summation of the vagaries of fishing reflect my personal observations of fishing days, both exciting and quiet but always memorable.

It is one of my favourites, as it has such complete sections covering all current reels, rods, lures, accessories, fishing tips on species as well as techniques, environmental issues, the future of rod techology , cooking/smoking fish as well as a comprehensive final section numbered 1-14, featuring historical aspect of Record/ABU as well as world champion Dick Walker on specimen fishing and Billy Lane, noted course fishermen from UK.

I hope you have enjoyed the  many hours that I spent scanning and coding this page,  perusing and learning from this wonderful 1965  volume of ABU Tight Lines.
