Synopsis
From the 2.4-million-copy bestselling series that defines pastimes from sailing to gardening to computers, Fishing is a comprehensive compilation of angling words and phrases-from hook (an irritating but highly reliable device used to quickly locate one's thumb at the bottom of the tackle box) to line (length of filament stretched between two fishing rods and joined approximately at its midpoint by a pair of linked hooks) to sinker (a lead weight attached to the end of a fishing line to facilitate the safe disposal in deep water of unwanted lures). Plus, learn why chicken is the tuna of the sea, and the true meaning of terms such as rod and reel, fly-tying, trolling, and dribble. Every member of the pier group will bite.

    I received this beautiful 14k gold chain as described. ⛓️ It arrived in a nice box which kept it from getting tangled which I really appreciated. I was so elated to be the winning bidder. With the price of gold these days this was a great deal. ✨It arrived within a week that is typical with USPS but at least it arrived safely and in one piece. Edward is a valued seller. AAA+++ 🤩💖

    Item is in great condition as presented. I agreed to pay far more in shipping cost than it took and seller refunded me the difference. Quick communication and received item in short order. Great seller with integrity! Could not recommend this seller highly enough.

    Brochure is in excellent condition, and just as described. Great price for a brochure from the 70’s. The packaging was perfect, and it was delivered very quickly. The communication with Ed, the seller, was great. So very happy with this vintage brochure! Highly recommend this seller. Thank you!
