Angler's Hours

Angler's Hours, written by Hugh Tempest Sheringham in the early 20th century, is a classic British work on angling. The book reflects Sheringham's passion for fly fishing while also covering coarse fishing techniques and the Japanese tenkara method. Noted for its engaging prose, the book captures the simple joys of fishing and the accompanying pleasures of life, such as enjoying tea after a day on the water. Sheringham, an influential figure in freshwater angling literature, served as the angling editor for The Field and is celebrated for his accessible writing style.
