Dry-Fly Trout Fishing - Paperback

by William W. Michael (Author)

In this early work Bill Michael has collected the high points from his many years of experience and has written about them in a style that will delight the reader. Informative as well as entertaining Dry-Fly Trout Fishing is a book for both the novice and the experience fisherman. Thoroughly recommended for the fisherman's library. Contents Include: An Invitation to Greater Pleasure; A Typical Day; Equipment; Casting and Retrieving; Hooking, Playing, Landing, Killing, and Wading; The Part Played by the Sciences; Trout Species and Some Experiences with Them; Trout Habits; Catch Your Limit or Limit Your Catch; Trout, Big or Little-Streams, Large or Small; Some Factors of Success; Stream Ethics; Fished-out Streams; Fish Tales; and a Conclusion. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
