Our dear friend and long-term client, Julian Pullan, has written a fascinating account of his fishing life and gives a wonderfully evocative account of the early days of the fishing on the Kola Region in Russia.

With an eye on the past and one very much on the future, this a hugely recommended book.

Right Place Right Time is a homage from a passionate angler to the sport and quarry which has brought him so much pleasure. It includes a comprehensive history of the salmon fishing in Russia’s Kola Peninsula and encompasses tales and adventures from those rivers as well as famous fisheries of England, Scotland, Wales, Norway, Argentina and Iceland. The author has combined his own wide experience with extensive research, looking at the adventures and exploits of salmon anglers over more than a century and comparing the historical challenges faced by both anglers and salmon with the challenges of today.

‘Julian Pullan has written an astute, original and engaging account of his personal sporting experiences, along with an intriguing history of salmon fishing in modern Russia, and a sensible overview of the future prospects for wild salmon in general. The result is a crisp, evocative, well-informed and extremely entertaining book which I can certainly recommend to anyone who has even the slightest interest in fish and fishing’. David Profumo

“The work that has gone into this book is clearly prodigious, while the writing is excellent. It will have readers enthralled, I’m sure, for hours at a time. Pullan has constructed such a clear and well-evidenced picture of the true state of the world regarding the salmon that I learned something new on every page. The research behind the book is extremely impressive.” Chris Newton

‘The salmon is the subject of much fine literature as a glamorous fish which in its wondrous life cycle connects continents. Julian Pullan’s Right Place Right Time adds to the genre as an angler who has seen many salmon places too and is impelled to share his roving thoughts and probing curiosity’. Michael Wigan
