Notes:
This is the second edition of "Piscatorial reminiscences and gleanings, by an old angler and bibliopolist. To which is added a catalogue of books on angling", by T.B., published in 1835. The 1887 edition omits the catalogue of books. A wide-ranging collection of short anecdotes and paragraphs on fish and fishing which the compiler had collected over many years. For instance, there are seventeen pages of notes on pike and pike fishing, taken from many sources.
