This antiquarian volume contains a practical guide to dry-fly fishing, especially written to fill the gap created by the absence of American dry-fly fishing literature. Written in simple, clear language and full of interesting information and practical hints and tips, this book, although old, will be of utility to novice dry-fly fishers, and will be of considerable value to collectors of antiquarian literature of this ilk. The chapters of this book include: 'English Dry-Fly Methods Modified by American Ideas and Conditions'; '''Fishing the Rise'' and ''Fishing the Stream, '' and a Word About the English ''Purist'''; 'Largely Statistical, Describing Rods, Lines, Leaders, Flies, and Other Tackle'; 'Showing That Americans May Use the Dry-Fly, Though There Is No American Fly-Fisher's Entomology', et cetera. This text is being republished now complete with a new introduction on the history of fishing.
