'Tickling trout could only be done on summer days, standing " knee deep in the pools I had to pretend it was only minnows I was after, the trout were for the fishermen. The odd trout was quickly slipped inside my shirt, but mostly I let them go.'
Growing up in rural Yorkshire in the 1940s and 50s, Terry Wilson spent his school days hunting down Just William books, cutting up apples to help with fractions and staring out the window dreaming up new schemes.
But it was on the Dales themselves that Terry came into his own. Whether he was 'oulrfishing' the adults with his homemade rod, grouse-beating for the lady of the manor, helping to bring in the farmers' hay in exchange for rabbit shooting rights, or growing his own prize caulis, his idiosyncratic and inventive mind is only matched by his love of nature.

Terry Wilson was born in Settle, North Yorkshire in 1945. He started writing at nine years old when he won a Bournville Chocolate competition about a chocolate bean, but it has been the Yorkshire Dales and its people which has provided most of his material. He has been previously published in the Dalesman magazine and the Yorkshire Post. Vissza
