This vintage work contains a detailed encyclopaedia of fly-fishing, with supplementary information and instructions relative to trout-and-grayling fishing. This text includes information on the leading flies for every month of the season, and contains a wealth of information that will be of considerable utility to the modern fly-fisher. The chapters of this volume include: 'Of the Trout', 'Measurement, Weight, Fins, Colour, Condition, Haunts', 'Descriptions of a Fishing-hut or Observatory', 'The Trout's Sense of Hearing, Sight, Taste and Smell', 'Manner of Feeding', 'Of Tackle', 'Rod', 'Line', 'Reel', 'Foot Line', 'Hook', 'Dubbing Bag', et cetera. This volume was first published in 1839, and is being republished now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a new introduction on the history of fishing.
