Excerpt from An Angler's Year But this is only half-truth, and it must not be forgotten that the resiliency of a light rod is often permanently damaged by the use of a heavy tapered line, and that a light line will not bring out the full spring of a powerful rod.

Excerpt from Hints to Anglers With regard to striking, the slightest motion, just sufficient to tighten the line, is enough to book a trout. Fishing in the manner that I have described above, any angler will return after a day's sport with a heavy basket. Even if he is not quick sighted enough to see the fish rise, so as to strike them instantly, many are quite certain to hook themselves. Anglers generally think that a deep pool is the place in which they are sure to find trout. This is a mistake you ought to fish twenty or thirty yards above or below the pool; for any fish which may be in it, it is almost impossible to take. It is a point of great consequence to know in what kind of water trout are likely to be feeding during the different seasons of the year; but it is impossible to lay down rules for this, so much de pending upon the weather. But, if you begin by throwing over all kinds of water, you will soon see where the trout are to be found. It will soon appear whether they are feeding in the pools or streams, in deep or in shallow water. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Fishing Probably few persons who visited the late International Fisheries Exhibition in South Kensington could fail'to have been struck by the multiplicity, and, to the un initiated, complexity of the engines and appliances used in the capture of fish. The Observation applies even more to the 'angler'-a generic term that I have a special objection to, by the way, but let us say to the fisherman who uses a rod - than to the 'fisherman' proper, whose weapons are net and hand-line, and who 'occupies his business in great waters.'

The Compleat Angler, Izaak Walton's fishing classic, is a celebration of the art and spirit of fishing. Through prose, verse, song, and folklore, Walton inspires readers to go into nature -- to go to its meandering streams and rivers -- and fish. Walton teaches us about a life filled with harmony between nature, man, and God; and a life spent in the company of friends and free from the hustle of the city.
Excerpt from The Angler and the Loop-Rod But the distinctive features of the book are the prominence which it gives to the art of fishing with what may be styled the loop-rod and line, and the pre-eminence which it claims for such over the ordinary appliances of jointed-rod and reel. Not that these latter should be entirely discarded indeed, in certain circumstances they alone are admissible - but my experience of both has gone to show that, for the most part, in ordinary trout fishing, the loop-rod and line are immeasurably superior in everything that makes for skilful and successful angling.

Excerpt from An Open Creel Fishing is very like the other pursuits of men, com pact of ill and good, the good being, as we think, not too lavishly bestowed on some of us. The season of any given angler (i except those prodigious fellows who never have a blank, who think in dozens and stones, and who cannot but come to a bad piscatorial end) is a calculable affair. Of the total number of his days, probably two-thirds will give him no results worth mentioning. Three-quarters of the rest will be of the type conveniently labelled as fair to middling. And there may be two or three days of really fine sport, days about which he at once writes articles. An article or so may be written about days of the second class, but about those of the first there is a grim silence. Hence the number of fish in a book on fishing. Francis Francis, I believe, once dryly remarked to an ecstatic angler who was eloquent upon the beauties of nature and the unimportance of slaughter that it doubtless was so, but he himself had noticed a kind of prejudice in favour of a brace of fish in the creel. He was quite right, of course. We all go out to catch fish. Circumstances make it harder for us to do so year by year; there are more of us, and waters are no more numerous, less rather, while fish grow daily more experienced. Therefore we probably do not expect to catch so much as did our fathers, and the sort of day which they would have regarded as middling is received by us in humble thankfulness as a glorious occasion. The standard of expectation is decidedly lower than it used to be.' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Angler's Guide: The Most Complete and Practical Ever Written It must be known also, that there are numbers of Anglers who very seldom catch any fish. The Author could give many rather laughable instances; one only must suffice. He had been, upon one occasion, fishing for roach in the West India Dock, and on leav ing was overtaken by a party who had been fishing there too. They asked him if he had had any sport; he said, Yes, and held up his handkerchief, in which his bag of fish was tied. One of the party just took it from his hand to feel its weight, and holding it up in the air, said to one of his companions.
