Opis treści / summary:

Ksiażka zawiera nieco czarno-białych fotografii i rysunków.

In fishing books, instruction and reminiscence are inextricably plaited together. Even the books that purport to tell a simple story contrive to make or find themselves making pupils of their readers. And many of the books that set out merely to be instructive are lit by the glow of recollected emotion and turn to poetry without knowing it.

What wonder therefore that more good books have been written about fishing than any other sport? What wonder that fishermen, when they cannot fish, enjoy reading those good books?

So wrote that great fisherman and great writer Arthur Ransome. And the truth of his words is manifest in the last hundred years of the literature of fishing. the shelves of our libraries and antiquarian bookshops are full of true classics, beautifully written and still relevant to the fisherman today.

This important new series, printed direct from original editions, will make these great and delightful books available to the millions of passionate anglers and fishermen - whether they prefer to fish outdoors or in their armchairs.

GREASED LINE FISHING FOR SALMON

The publication of this book in 1935 marked a watershed in the techinques and methods whereby people fished for salmon in the summer months of the year. It chronicles the teachings of Arthur Wood of Cairnton-on-Dee who 'invented' greased line fishing, and in doing so added a major delight to all future generations of salmon fishermen. There can now be no salmon fisher in Great Britain who does not follow the teaching of Wood with appropriate modifications.

But the book is also a model of observation and information. It is full of such sound advice that it is still hailed as a bible for the salmon fisher.
