This book makes the perfect gift for any avid fly-fisherman. It covers a vast range of subjects including Scarcity of Trout, Increase of Fisherman, Pollution of Rivers, How Often to Cast Over a Fish, Lake Fishing, Night Fishing, to name a few, and also features entire chapters on Grasshopper Fishing, Tackle, and How to Tie a Fly. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some characters, illustrations and images might suffer from slight imperfections, blurring or minor shadows in the page background. This book appears exactly as it did when it was first published.
