Description
Excerpt from Salmon and Sea Trout: How to Propagate, Preserve and Catch Them in British Waters
IN preparing this volume on salmon and sea trout fishing, the editors have kept in view the purpose rather to present the experience of a practical angler, and the conclusions founded there on, than to retail the precepts and instructions prescribed by other writers. Every statement in this book - every article in equipment described every pattern of ?y described - is given, except where otherwise specified, on the author''s actual knowledge of them, and every theory suggested is founded on personal observation. Quotations have been admitted only where they tend to corroborate the views put forward, not from any disrespect to those who hold other opinions, but to avoid swelling the volume beyond a convenient size.
It has been a matter of careful consideration how far mention should be made of the goods supplied by various tradesmen, and whether it was desirable to reproduce explanatory figures from trade catalogues.
