Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Angler and the Loop-Rod
But the distinctive features of the book are the prominence which it gives to the art of fishing with what may be styled the loop-rod and line, and the pre-eminence which it claims for such over the ordinary appliances of jointed-rod and reel. Not that these latter should be entirely discarded indeed, in certain circumstances they alone are admissible - but my experience of both has gone to show that, for the most part, in ordinary trout fishing, the loop-rod and line are immeasurably superior in everything that makes for skilful and successful angling.

Excerpt from The Angler and the Loop-Rod
Into the list of flies I have admitted only those which, from close observation and actual trial, I have proved to be most worthy of the angler's regard. All of them, with the exception of the sand-fly (which attains its maturity in the sand and gravel at the side of the water), are hatched in the bed of the stream, and constitute the ready and natural food of the fish. The remarks under this head are more particularly applicable to the Clyde and the Tweed; still I believe they will hold good for all rivers and streams in this country, for the common natural flies are found more or less on all alike, and differ merely in the times of their development.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the art of fly-fishing, from selecting equipment like rods and lines, to bait selection and preparation, to technique and strategy when trying to catch trout. The author draws upon over forty years of experience to distill the most effective methods for success. This book offers an uncommon look at the oft-discussed topic of choosing fly bait, arguing that the most effective lures closely resemble the natural insects that trout feed on. It provides detailed instructions on dressing artificial flies and explains how to use loop-line and loop-rod methods for optimal fly control. It is an essential guide for all levels of anglers, giving practical tips, historical context, and thoughtful insights into the nature of the sport. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330031223_0
