Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Angler's Guide, Being a Complete Practical Treatise on Angling: Containing the Whole Art of Trolling, Bottom and Float-Fishing, Fly-Fishing, and Trimmer-Angling, for Sea, River, and Pond Fish, Founded on Forty Years' Practice and Observation
I have studiously avoided inserting in this work any thing resting on theory, being desirous of instruct ing the novice in the art of angling by rules drawn from practice and experience; and I have endeavoured to arrange these instructions, together with such observa tions as I considered necessary, in the most plain and intelligible manner.
In the Preface to the first edition I brie?y, but truly, stated my motives for publishing a Treatise on Angling; and it may not be amiss also to state what have been my opportunities of acquiring a knowledge in that art which I take upon me to teach.
