The One That Didn’t Get Away celebrates the triumphant days and victorious moments for game, coarse and sea anglers from the past two centuries. Following Tom Quinn’s previous book Great Angling Disasters, he has compiled this collection of archive articles and extracts, which captures the excitement, skill and satisfaction of successful angling expeditions. Taking readers from rivers to seas and all points of the compass, this is a wonderful chronicle filled with the highlights of fishing.

Anglers will find much here to entertain and delight them – and to remind them why the next best thing to fishing is reading about it!
