YORKIE BOYS GO FISHING is set in the wonderful Yorkshire Dales and in Ireland of the 1950s. It follows the adventures of the boys and girls you met in YORKIE BOYS and in YORKIE BOYS AND GIRLS.
These amusing stories tell of the childhood of a lifelong fisherman, of early and failed attempts to catch wily Swale trout, of unforgettable days in an Ireland long gone, of the father who almost drowned someone else's dog, of fishing with a homemade bomb and nearly sending the priest to his maker.
Later, in teenage years, the Yorkie Boys narrowly avoid death by drowning, become expert poachers, meet a fishing legend, experiment with beer and girls and learn that there is a lot more to fishing than catching fish.
For those old enough to remember the 50s and 60s, this book will re-kindle happy memories of their childhood.
For those too young to remember, it will re-create a world of innocent enjoyment enjoyed by their parents - a world lost for ever.
