Excerpt from Hints to AnglersWith regard to striking, the slightest motion, just sufficient to tighten the line, is enough to book a trout. Fishing in the manner that I have described above, any angler will return after a day's sport with a heavy basket. Even if he is not quick sighted enough to see the fish rise, so as to strike them instantly, many are quite certain to hook themselves. Anglers generally think that a deep pool is the place in which they are sure to find trout. This is a mistake you ought to fish twenty or thirty yards above or below the pool, for any fish which may be in it, it is almost impossible to take. It is a point of great consequence to know in what kind of water trout are likely to be feeding during the different seasons of the year, but it is impossible to lay down rules for this, so much de pending upon the weather. But, if you begin by throwing over all kinds of water, you will soon see where the trout are to be found. It will soon appear whether they are feeding in the pools or streams, in deep or in shallow water.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
