A tight, clean, and unmarked copy-" About 20 years ago, I summarized the basic idea behind a short book I wrote on fly fishing in this way: "An artificial fly is nothing more than an inert mass of fur and feather; all the life and natural behavior that the fish perceives in it have been breathed into it by the artist who holds the rod."I recall that the modest little book was unexpectedly successful. While it held no previously untold secrets and revealed no startling knowledge, I believe its success was due to the fact that it undertook to explain fully but in a simple and direct manner the elements needed to learn how to fly fish. The book you hold in your hands today has been written with the same basic goal, but it uses far more sophisticated means. As you will see by leafing through the pages, every effort has been made to make it easy to understand. We've attempted to discuss each area as completely as we could while taking care to avoid getting lost in purely subjective preferences. We wanted the text to provide a complete overview of each subject while keeping the concepts straightforward and presenting them as concisely as possible. Despite the amount of information contained in these pages, we set a goal of ensuring that it would be easy to read. The wealth of useful illustrations in this book corresponds almost perfectly with the text. In fact, simply studying the graphics is probably enough for the reader to understand most of the ideas discussed in each chapter. We believe that we can go so far as to say that after studying this book, complete neophytes will have all the knowledge they need to become accomplished at fly fishing, provided they actually spend some time by the water in the course of the learning process. But this book is not intended only for beginners-even experienced anglers will find innovative ways of doing things, new ideas, and a general approach to fly fishing that will round out their own knowledge. As we approach the 21st century, fly fishing is becoming one of the outdoor activities to inspire a growing hunger for information and new approaches. We wanted to make this book an instrument to help satisfy these desires."-Jeannot Ruel.

Sinopsis

Foreword

About 20 years ago, I summarized the basic idea behind a short book I wrote on fly fishing in this way: "An artificial fly is nothing more than an inert mass of fur and feather; all the life and natural behavior that the fish perceives in it have been breathed into it by the artist who holds the rod."

I recall that the modest little book was unexpectedly successful. While it held no previously untold secrets and revealed no startling knowledge, I believe its success was due to the fact that it undertook to explain fully but in a simple and direct manner the elements needed to learn how to fly-fish. The book you hold in your hands today has been written with the same basic goal, but it uses far more sophisticated means. As you will see by leafing through the pages, every effort has been made to make it easy to understand.

We've attempted to discuss each area as completely as we could, while taking care to avoid getting lost in purely subjective preferences. We wanted the text to provide a complete overview of each subject while keeping the concepts straightforward and presenting them as concisely as possible. Despite the amount of information contained in these pages, we set a goal of ensuring that it would be easy to read.

The wealth of useful illustrations in this book corresponds almost perfectly to the text. In fact, simply studying the graphics is probably enough for the reader to understand most of the ideas discussed in each chapter. We believe that we can go so far as to say that after studying this book, complete neophytes will have all the knowledge they need to become accomplished at fly fishing, provided they actually spend some time by the water in the course of the learning process. But this book is not intended only for beginners-even experienced anglers will find innovative ways of doing things, new ideas and a general approach to fly fishing that will round out their own knowledge.

As we approach the 21st century, fly fishing is becoming one of the outdoor activities to inspire a growing hunger for information and new approaches. We wanted to make this book an instrument to help satisfy these desires.

M�s informaci�n

Informaci�n sobre el derecho de desistimiento

Derecho legal de desistimiento

Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 d�as sin dar ning�n motivo.

El periodo de desistimiento vencer� a los 14 d�as desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesi�n f�sica del �ltimo bien o del �ltimo lote o pieza.

Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electr�nica y env�e una declaraci�n clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a trav�s de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electr�nico).

Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que env�e su comunicaci�n relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.

Efectos del desistimiento

Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de env�o (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de env�o que no sea el tipo de env�o est�ndar m�s econ�mico que ofrecemos).

Podemos hacer una deducci�n del reembolso por la p�rdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la p�rdida es el resultado de una manipulaci�n innecesaria por su parte.

Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a m�s tardar, 14 d�as despu�s de que se nos informe de su decisi�n de rescindir este contrato.

Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utiliz� para la transacci�n inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrir� en ning�n cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.

Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.

Deber� devolver los bienes o entregarlos a Mad Hatter, West Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada, sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo m�ximo de 14 d�as a partir del d�a en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercanc�a antes de que venza el periodo de 14 d�as. Tendr� que asumir los gastos directos de devoluci�n de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminuci�n del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulaci�n distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las caracter�sticas y el funcionamiento de los bienes.

La entrega de peri�dicos, diarios o revistas, con la excepci�n de los contratos de suscripci�n; y
