Thirty years’ experience catching big pike from Fenland rivers and drains. At the time of publication Chillingworth had caught 78 pike over 20lbs, he went on to become one of only a handful of anglers to have caught more than 400. Bill, also former zander record holder, was an angler who never sought the limelight but became a household name despite this and something of a local legend in the Fenland area.
This book remains his only major contribution to angling writing.
