"The Practical Angler or The Art of Trout-Fishing more particularly applied to clear water," by W.C. Stewart, first published in 1857, revolutionised tactics and rapidly became an influential classic. His upstream sunk-fly technique, using lightly dressed "spiders," is described here, just one year before the birth of G.E.M. Skues, who applied the same idea to chalkstream fishing fifty years later.
