Fish and
Fishing
Such a broad topic but here with primarily an Australian ABU Focus except
for the Species ID and ABU Record Fisken Dream Trips around the world!
One exception to the rule is this beautiful tribute to Aussie fishing by Solvol, an Australian detergent company from the 40's as the artwork and biology is unsurpassed! No ABU within!
(Throughout the rest of this page you will find links with numerous references to ABU equipment, be it
rods, reels or lures, more often than not specifically named but noticed
very subtly within photographs.)
Initially I will break the subject up into these three sections, some of which
are cross related....
Journalism
Related to all things fishing by Aussie fishing royalty. Theses guys are
experienced practitioners as well as writers from the last 60 years or
so, some of whom wrote their own books or for iconic magazines like
The Australian Angler, Angler's Digest and
Outdoors and Fishing.
Species
Fishbase..huge online database

Links to helpful educational sites from
around the world as well as ABU Identifish species of course.
Conservation
Interesting articles on species and
environments in danger, from both Australia
and around the world to provoke thought and perhaps action.
Record
Fisken Awards
Pins, Certificates and badges for notable catches awarded by ABU of
Sweden.
Record Fisken Dream Trips
Who would not want to be invited to fish with like -minded fishers at these exotic locations?
Fishing: A
Historical perspective
From earliest times to the arrival of
the excellence of ABU fishing equipment.
If anyone has the interest in (perhaps
you are travelling there) and the couple of months spare to read the
material from this link, they will be very well rewarded. It is topical,
conservation-minded and holds some truly wonderful articles that not only
inform, but give one cause for concern for the fisheries of the world. Scope
is also beyond Africa, as I have seen Australian and Chilean information.
