The Best of British Baits with Supplement

Chris Sandford

Published privately by the author, The Best of British Baits is the first in-depth study of artificial baits made in the British Isles. This identification guide is the result of five years' intensive research and traces the history of our lures from Izaac Walton's detailed description of a silk minnow in 1653 through to the 1930s. Patent specifications are used chronologically to mark the development and examine the innovations found in the design of the artificial bait in Great Britain.

The Supplement is an identification guide to flights, spinners, mounts and bait harnesses.
