Notes: Hardy's Anglers' Guides were the most comprehensive fishing tackle catalogues of their day. They portrayed all of the most up-to-date tackle in great detail, as well as many unusual items. They are indispensible aids for present-day collectors of fishing tackle. This edition has articles by John James Hardy and Laurie R. Hardy and a series of short articles by authorities on fishing in many parts of the world as well as short profiles of dorado, Nile perch and tigerfish.
