Very good in slightly used/ spine-faded dust-wrapper. "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. .

Zustand: new. (Hardcover, 1985). (1977) 1985 new edition. Large 4to (220 x 280mm). Ppxx,296. B/w photographs & illustrations. Brown cloth, spine titled in gilt. Very good copy in dust-wrapper. "By unanimous agreement, this is simply the best work on the subject - the definitive book. Mr. Garrison, a mechanical engineer by training, built perhaps the finest rods ever - and describes how it's done. He died before the book was first published (in 1977) though his protege, Hoagy B. Carmichael, completed it and brought it to publication. Essential reading for all who admire fine bamboo rods. A useful section is included on restoration, refinishing and repair as well." .
