Download or read book Wet Fly Fishing Treated Methodically With Illustrations written by E. M. Tod and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wet fly-fishing, as opposed to dry fly-fishing, is a mode of fly-fishing whereby the fly is dragged underwater to mimic submerged flies that are being dredged along with the flow of the water. This vintage book contains a detailed guide to this style of fishing, offering information on the construction of artificial flies, the best techniques to use, necessary equipment, seasonal considerations, which fish can be caught by this method, and much more. Contents include: “Introductory”, “The Fishing of Burns with the Wet-fly”, “The Fishing of 'Waters', i.e. Tributary, Streams, etc.”, “Rivers and Stream Generally, which have been Fished by the Author”, “Concerning Flies”, 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.

Download or read book Fly Fishing Secrets of the Ancients written by Paul Schullery and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern fly-fishing is only the latest chapter in a two-millennia saga of technological creativity and passionate observation of the natural world. In Fly-Fishing Secrets of the Ancients, historian-naturalist Paul Schullery explores the earlier chapters in that saga and unearths a host of provocative theories, techniques, and insights that helped shape the modern fly-fisher. Schullery demonstrates that whether we're looking for a good fish story, a clearer understanding of why we fish the way we do, or even a way to improve our own sport, we ignore our elders at our peril. Fly-Fishing Secrets of the Ancients offers the beginning fly-fisher an unprecedented opportunity to come to terms with some of the sport's most fundamental theoretical and practical challenges. It offers the expert fly-fisher a chance to test current angling dogma--and his or her own pet theories--against that of the sport's greatest past masters. And it offers all readers a fresh, probing, and often-humorous take on the great endless fish story we perpetuate and enrich every time we cast a fly.
