(1958) 1962 3rd impression. Small format (95 x 165mm). Pp96. B/w illustrations. Blue boards, spine titled in dark blue.

A good book on a species which rarely gets the attention it deserves. One of the scarcer titles in this highly collectable series. Chapters include: Spawning, distribution and habitat; Baits and ground-baits; Tackle; Methods of fishing with bait; Fly-fishing. Appendices on hybridism in dace and notable dace.
