  • Trout Fishing

    William Earl Hodgson

    eBook
    This is the third edition of his book and was published in 1920. Excerpts from the book: However intimate any man's acquaint- ance with the habits of trout may be, there comes not infrequently a day on which it proves distressingly insufficient. The water is in splendid order, the air is volatile, and the lures seem right ; but not a trout will rise. This shows that the science of angling is still far from being exact. In the British Islands the sport has been a favourite for centuries. By means of rods and lines, books of flies, and cases of minnow-tackle, as well as by oral tradition and literature, instruction in it has been passed on, constantly revised and expanded, from generation to generation ; yet there always have been, and appar- ently there always will be, days on which, even if his life depended on his doing so, the most expert angler could not, by fair means, catch a single trout. Often these days are to all appearance quite like days on which the fish rose at the fly well and the basket was quickly filled ; but somehow or other knowledge lingers, the most experienced skill is baffled. It is not that all the trout are asleep or fast- ing. Although they will not look at any of the lures you offer, here and there you see one rising or " tailing " ; or it may be that a rapidly moving upheaval of the water shows that a large old trout is rushing at a young one. The fish, or some of them, are obviously not alto- gether abstinent from food ; but the task of catching them passes the wit of man.

    In North America, the six main types of trout are the brown, brook, rainbow, steelhead, cutthroat, and lake.

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, June 4, 2015)
    Excerpt from Trout FishingIn this edition there is a new frontispiece. I myself was well pleased with Rolfe's picture which adorns the earlier issues; but Mr. Adam Black thought that our version had not done justice to the original. He believed that a better reproduction was possible, and asked me whether Mr. Barratt would lend the original again. Mr. Barratt said "Certainly," and had the picture brought to London from Kent; but he was willing to do more than the Publisher wished.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
