THE WAYS OF TROUT: WHEN TROUT FEED AND WHY. By Leonard M. Wright, Jr.
1985 1st edition. 8vo (145 x 218mm). Ppxiv,142. B/w illustrations by Richard Harrington. Yellow paper-covered boards, burgundy cloth spine, spine titled in gilt.
"This is the story of the wild (or streambred) brook, brown, and rainbow trout in the freestone, or rainfed, streams and rivers that make up most of (the USA's) running-water trout fisheries. Here are the little-known facts about their evolution, their life histories, and especially their lifestyle - how water currents, stream contours, and temperature changes affect their behaviour. Why will trout sometimes take freely when none are seen feeding? Why are they, at other times, virtually uncatchable? Why do you nearly always raise a good fish in one place and never in another that looks the same?" Leonard M. Wright ventures to suggest some answers.
