"This is far from being a comprehensive book on trout fishing for the simple reason that it is impossible to parcel up all the knowledge one has about fishing in a book at all. What we have tried to give readers is sound technical information on the aspects of trout fishing a newcomer to the sport is likely to meet with, and we have tried to make it easy for an angler to begin his fishing with us and go on from strength to strength". Chapters include; types of trout you will meet; good wet fly practice; loch fly fishing; nymphs - river and loch; good dry fly technique; dapping for trout; worm and other natural baits; good and bad spinning; playing trout; choosing tackle; the care of outboard motors; good fishing practice; a word about grayling.
