| Publisher Description: "Sunshine and the Dry Fly" is a classic guide to fly-fishing, with a special focus on fishing for trout. Written in simple, plain language and full of helpful illustrations, this volume represents a timeless handbook for the fly fisherman, and it would make for a fine addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "Troubles of a Beginner", "Against the Light", "The Blue-Winged Olive", "The Sherry Spinner", "The Sense of Colour", "Pale-Wateries", "Pale-Wateries (continued)", "Olive, Iron-Blues, Brown Ants, and Black Gnats", "Mostly About May-Flies", "The Trout and the Fly - A Psychological Speculation", "Cavear Juvenis", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of fishing. |
