Filmed at Southend in Essex. Introductory intertitle reads: "The Angling Girl to the Pier has gone, In the ranks of hope you'll find her" - (With apologies to "The Minstrel Boy")" This might be a reference to a popular song from a musical of the time.

High angle shot of a large number of anglers on Southend Pier. "With such experience in hooking all sorts of catches you'd think Eve would stand a good chance in the Angling Competition."

Great shot of woman (30ish) casting off with ships in the background off the pier. "And after hours of Faith, Hope and dexterity - catches - " C/U of a woman (50ish) holding up a rod with a flat fish attached to the hook. The fish spins around and she smiles.
