Condición: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Paperback, 2018). 2018 1st edition. 8vo (157 x 234mm). Pp119. Colour and b/w photographs & illustrations. Pictorial card covers with flaps. Edition limited to 250 numbered copies. Fine new copy. D.A.N. Asterley (known, of course, as Dan) was the headmaster of a private school in the Worcestershire countryside. His passion was trout fishing, and although he also fished further afield, the place dearest to his heart was "The Brook" - the Leigh Brook, a tributary of the river Teme near Malvern. Dan was a thinking angler and, to our good fortune, he put his thoughts to paper - on the habits and ecology of the trout; the natural flies of the Brook, and the fly-patterns he tied to represent them; his small-stream tactics of dibbing and stalking; and the antics of his fishing-dog, Smuggler. Dan's writing is honest and refreshing, conveying his love of the countryside, and with much useful lore for the flyfisher. Volume Eleven of Coch-y-Bonddu Books Angling Monographs Series.
