Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dry-Fly Fishing Those who have been fishing the floating fly for many years may be surprised to learn how much misconception exists regarding their favourite method. It is still looked upon in many quarters as something mysterious, something demanding superlative skill and even erudition, something applicable only to certain waters whereas the fact is that it is as simple as it is deadly, and more generally useful than any other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science of Dry Fly Fishing and Salmon Fly Fishing This consists, in the first place, in the life-history of the salmon, from the time it is deposited as ova by the parent fish in the redd until it attains its full grown state. I have ventured, when dealing with this interesting matter, to introduce some original theories as regards those questions which are still a subject of controversy. In the second place, I have dealt with the different methods of casting, and by plates and diagrams have endeavoured to show the various casts for presenting the lure to the salmon, and explained the methods to be adopted when actually fishing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science of Dry Fly Fisching While our sporting instincts will be aroused by the difficulties and thrilled by the triumphs Of fly fishing, the artistic and poetic side of our temperament will be as strongly appealed to, and affected, by the surroundings Of the salmon rivers and trout streams on which our fly may be cast. The salmon river will inspire the soul with the strength and force Of its beauty, and invigorate the body with the health-giving scent Of its pine forests and heather; the trout stream will charm our mind, and lull our senses into delicious content, as we listen to the rippling note Of its liquid harmony and inhale the delicate perfume Of its thousand surrounding flowers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time ever in the world of fly fishing, a classic work has been updated into a fully illustrated, modern format. This new volume of The Dry Fly and Fast Water The Dry Fly and Fast Water established George La Branche conservationist, angler, naturalist as a man ahead of his time. In this landmark work his instructions on reading the water and presentation (explaining such techniques as the bounce cast, line control, and 'creating a hatch'), and his descriptions of rise forms and how to read them are all as fresh today as they were more than eighty years ago. In fact, his discussion of fishing a dry fly on fast water heresy when he wrote it has not been improved upon in the modern literature. Any angler who reads this book whether rank novice or seasoned expert and applies La Branche's wisdom will catch more fish on the dry fly.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fly Fishing Numerous pens have been engaged dur ing the last few years on the subject of fly fishing, but the editors feel sure that the volume by Sir Edward Grey, with which the Haddon Hall Library opens, will not be re garded by anglers as superfluous. Gardens and gardening, too, are to be treated of, and will again receive the attention of one who has never yet failed to enrich English literature when he has taken up his pen to write on the well-loved theme.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Fish the Dry Fly: Describing the Latest Up-to-Date Necessary Tackle, Its Cost, and Where to Get It and the Proper Method of Using It; A Description of the American and English Dry Flies; Also How to Fish Various Nymphs The dry fly has made rapid strides in the estimation of American trout fishermen during the last ten years, so that the new art is now widely known all over the continent, although it is not, as yet, practiced to any great extent, for the reason that method and special tools have not been fully described in a simple manner. I believe every thought ful trout angler wants to acquire the latest and best up-to date information about dry fly fishing so that he may learn to test his skill in this most satisfying branch in the art of angling. The object of this little booklet is to give a detailed, easily understood definition of the dry fly in compact form as a handy guide, to describe exclusively how the art may be practised on American streams with dry flies copied from native insects Without any reference whatever to methods used on British streams; this field has been so well covered, not only by eminent English writers, Halford and others, but also by two expert American anglers, Emlyn M. Gill and George M. L. La Branche, who have described their Views with great detail and compared the difference in the method pursued in England, as well as by themselves on our own Streams. If it is the readers' desire to go fur ther, and study the art more thoroughly from the British standpoint, they Should get Halford's books from England.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dry Fly Fishing in Border Waters Good wine needs no bush, and any book about angling written in the keenly enthusiastic spirit of the following pages needs really no Introduction. We anglers all love one another, said Izaak Walton, truly. Like Free masons, we are brothers the world over; as ready to listen to each other's notions and experiences of the craft as we are to cast our flies upon the waters - the bread being in our baskets for the time. With anglers, talking shop is as dear as are the waterside pleasures of memory when the rod is resting and the season of retrospect has set in.
