"This is far from being a comprehensive book on trout fishing for the simple reason that it is impossible to parcel up all the knowledge one has about fishing in a book at all. What we have tried to give readers is sound technical information on the aspects of trout fishing a newcomer to the sport is likely to meet with, and we have tried to make it easy for an angler to include: Types of trout you will meet; Good wet fly practice; Loch fly fishing; Nymphs - river and loch; Good dry fly technique; Dapping for trout; Worm and other natural baits; Good and bad spinning; Playing trout; Choosing tackle; The care of outboard motors; Good fishing practice; A word about grayling.
