Hard Back with Dust Jacket, both in Good condition. Green cloth boards with gold lettering to spine. Pictorial Dust Jacket not price clipped. Not Inscribed. The bottom edges of both the book and dust jacket are stained. 177 Pages. There is a frontispiece and eighteen (18) other illustrations. No sport has more participants than…fishing, and no branch of it is growing faster than fly fishing. Its only limiting factor has been the opportunity to practice it, and opportunity means water fit for trout, the flyfishers' classic quarry. This book is the standard authority for the provision or improvement of sport in such waters. For clubs, landowners, farmers and tenants wishing to exploit their sporting rights more fully, this is an irreplaceable handbook.

Red cloth, silver gilt titles to spine. Spine ends bumped. Slight foxing to end-papers and edges, good-plus. Lacks dust-wrapper. "This volume is the result of a…n honest effort to describe, with such impartiality as I am capable of, the many and various legal methods of catching trout with rod and line in common usage to-day in the British Isles." Carter Platts further states that he has avoided "hysterical partisanship" and "I crave forgiveness of the fly fisher for having devoted so much space to bait fishing, while, with equal humility, I entreat the pardon of the bait fisher for allotting so many pages to fly fishing." Platt's recommended reading on the subject of entomology is W.G. Bainbridge's The Fly-fisher's Guide to Aquatic Flies. Some of the material in the text was first published in the Field and the Salmon and Trout Magazine, and no less than H.D. Turing and G.E.M. Skues helped prepare the manuscript. Chapters include: Trout and trout fishing; Trout rode; Other tackle; Casting the fly; Striking, playing, and landing; Knots; Wet-fly fishing; Dry-fly fishing; Artificial may-fly fishing; Nymph fishing; Lake fishing; Bustard fishing; The fly rod and the minnow; Spinning for trout - baits and tackle; Spinning for trout - methods; Clear-water wormin; Thick-water worming; Stone-fly and creeper fishing; Dapping with the may-fly and 'Daddy'; Shade fishing; Other bait fishing; thames trouting; Sea trout fishing; Familiar trout flies and their dressing; What's what in trout fishing. Appendix: Evolution of the fixed-spool reel. .
