Another title in this highly collectable series. Trout: How To Catch Them covers all methods of trout fishing, fair and foul: worming, spinning, all types of flyfishing, natural history, tackle, casting, trout waters. As usual in this authoritative series, the author manages to cram a huge amount of information into a very small book. A feature of this particular title is that most copies are very well-used - a sign that they have been read many times - the sign of a good book!
