There has long been a need for a comprehensive guide to river
fly-fishing for trout and grayling in the rivers of the UK. Peter
Lapsley, in his masterly treatment of the subject, reveals that,
far from being the restricted pleasure of the wealthy, river
fly-fishing is widely available throughout the country at
reasonable cost, providing anglers with a wonderful variety of
opportunities. Armed with this book, both novice and experienced
fly-fishers will gain from the author's clear, concise and
handsomely illustrated instructions. The history of river
fly-fishing; the types and natures of the streams and rivers in
which trout, sea trout and grayling are found; the behaviour of the
fish and of the creatures they eat; tackle, equipment, flies and
knots; casting techniques and problem-solving; times and seasons;
dry fly, nymph and wet fly fishing; and finding inexpensive and
readily accessible waters - all these and more make "River
Fly-Fishing" a truly complete guide to the sport.
