Description
“Fishing with the Fly – Sketches by Lovers of Art” is a wonderful book full of anecdotes, sketches, guides, notes, and more on the subject of fishing, written by various authors. These interesting, informative, and entertaining pieces capture the beauty and art of fishing, and will appeal to those with a keen interest in the subject be it practical or academic. Contents include: “Etchings on a Salmon Stream”, “Fly Casting for Salmon”, “The Salmon and Trout of Alaska”, “Sea-Trout”, “Rangeley Brook Trout”, “The Grayling”, “A Trouting Trip to St. Ignace Island”, “The Angler’s Greeting”, “The Lure”, “Fly-fishing in the Yosemite”, “How to Cast a Fly”, “Trout: Meeting in the Yosemite”, “The Poetry of Fly Fishing”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with that in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of fishing.
