The Song of the Solitary Bass Fisher

By James Batty

James Batty seldom ventures further than about 20 miles from his Cornish home, west of Penzance. He fishes from the rocks and beaches in a handful of places and this is quite enough for him. For his quarry - the European bass - is a challenging one and you need to know exactly how it behaves, what it is feeding on and where it is likely to be lurking if you are to stand a chance of catching it.


Batty is a thoughtful, intelligent, amusing angler who writes with clarity and refreshing insight.
