Excerpt from Casting Tackle and Methods
In Part II, I take up methods, and after instruct ing briefly in the handling of rod and reel. I take the reader to lake and stream and fish with him, showing him, as best I may, how, when and where to throw his lure. And it is the fishing out under the blue sky, where the birds sing and the water mur murs, that makes angling the sport of sports. I love tackle, talk and write tackle, but it is the actual fishing which enraptures me. Better a day on a bass water than two cycles of Cathay. I fondly believe that it will be Part II that will hold the attention of the reader longest/ though he will turn to the first half for information, and I hope that he will not be disappointed.
These chapters appeared in their original form in Outdoor Life, though readers of that magazine will not recognize them in their new dress, so changed and elaborated are they. All have been re-written, some changed entirely to meet modern discoveries. Always I have worked with the needs of anglers in mind, needs that have been made manifest to me through extended and wide correspondence. Last year I answered questions from no less than 600 bass fans throughout the United States and Canada. So the reader can see that while I have compiled the book, as it were, it is the many eager questioners who have actually written it. So it is proper that I dedicate it to them, not forgetting to thank the Edi tor Of Outdoor Life for the privilege of publication in book form.

Excerpt from Casting Tackle and Methods
I am told that very few people read an introduction, a matter which I find it exceedingly difficult to believe, for often the introduction is the best part of a book; that is, when the introduction is not an apology for the book. I make no apology for sending out upon the great sea of books another volume dealing with bait casting as practiced with short rod and multiplying reel. It seems to me that there is room for another work, not too technical for the tyro, withal exact enough to prove of Interest to the old hand. It is not enough for a man to know tackle; he must also know fish; therefore I have divided this book into two parts: Part I deals with tackle, while Part II treats of methods. In both divisions I have been as careful and painstaking as possible, repeating myself again and again for the sake of clearness.
In Part I, I begin with a frank discussion of the rod. Its material, construction and length, answering the questions which have so frequently been asked through my department in Outdoor Life. Then I take up the modern bait casting reel, tracing its development from the old English single action.
