Excerpt from The Book of the Salmon, in Two Parts, Vol. 1 of 2: The Theory, Principles and Practice of Fly-Fishing for Salmon; With Lists of Salmon-Flies for Every Good River in the Empire; The Natural History of the Salmon; Usefully Illustrated With Numerous Engravings of Salmon-Flies, and Salmon-Fry The first part of this book will be found to consist of a code of rules for the practice of pure fly-fishing for salmon. I presume the student to be already proficient in the art of fly-fishing for trout, and taking him at that point of progress, I place in his hands the salmon-rod. I tell him of what materials it is to be made of what size and shape it is to be; and I describe the winch and lines best suited for it. I tell him then how to use it, whether for casting the fly, humouring the fly on the water, or striking, hooking, or playing a salmon. I show him how a salmon river is to be fished, and where and when to the best advantage. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
