Description
Excerpt from American Trout-Stream Insects: A Guide to Angling Flies and Other Aquatic Insects Alluring to Trout
The object of this book is to furnish anglers, amateurs, students of entomology, and others in terested in aquatic insects, with a colored selection of the most abundant and well-known trout insects that appear, month by month, on the rivers and lakes of the temperate regions of North America.
Inquiries from various State entomologists failed to locate a single volume or treatise on trout-stream insects. Likewise, diligent search in libraries and large bookstores proved futile. This shows the present volume to be the first and only Work on this most necessary adjunct to the angler''s craft. It is curious that While our Government documents re lating to pisciculture are equal to, if not in advance of, those of European countries, there, particularlxr in England and France, research in the field of entomology has kept pace with other branches of science.
