The Floating Line for Salmon and Sea-Trout

This book contains a comprehensive guide to float-line sea fishing, with a specific focus on catching salmon and sea-trout. This timeless handbook is highly recommended for modern fishermen, and includes a wealth of invaluable information on equipment, techniques, locations, common problems, and much more. Contents include: "The Charm of the Floating Fly", "The Equipment for Floating Line", "Choosing the Size of the Fly", "Fishing a Pool", "Whys and Wherefores", "Control of the Fly", "Problems you Meet Every Day", "On Inducing Salmon to Take the Fly", "Correspondence on the Habits of Salmon", etcetera. Many vintage texts such as this - particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before - are increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
