Crawford Little's book "sets out a logical argument as to why and when a salmon, generally accepted as a non-feeder in fresh water, may fall for the temptation of a salmon fly. This leads to a thoroughly practical description of the what, where and how of tackle and technique that leads to success with salmon." Chapters include: Why a salmon takes; When and where a salmon takes; The salmon fly; Tackle; Fly casting and presentation; Cold-water tactics; Warm-water tactics; Let battle commence; Sport on the loch.
