No Customer Reviews
"It behoves any one who is desirous of obtaining his fair share of piscatorial good fortune to take care that his fishing garb is sober of hue and not of a nature to attract the attention of the trout." One in a series of classic works devoted to The Trout this work from 1877 examines the habits, habitats and techniques that are as relevant today as they were when this book was first published. "Notwithstanding the amount of literature on the subject of angling, no more sound advice has been set forth than that which Isaac Walton propounded as having been given by one Mr. Thomas Barker in his directions for fly fishing. it is: "First let your rod be light and very gentle: I take the best to be of two pieces. And let not your line exceed three or four hairs at the most, rt of your line; but if you can attain to angle with one hair, you shall have more rises and catch more fish. " This reprint is an effort to bring classic antiquarian sporting books and memorabilia to a wider audience than could possibly be reached by access only to those remaining copies of the originally published works
