Publisher's Synopsis

Salmonia: Or Days Of Fly Fishing by An Angler is a classic book on the art of fly fishing. Written in the early 19th century, the book is a collection of essays and observations on the joys and techniques of fishing for salmon and trout. The author, who remains anonymous, shares his experiences and insights on everything from the best equipment and flies to use, to the behavior of fish and the beauty of nature. The book is divided into four parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of fishing. The first part is a philosophical reflection on the joys of fishing, while the second part is a practical guide to the equipment and techniques needed to catch fish. The third part is a detailed description of the different species of fish that can be caught, including their habits and habitats. The final part is a collection of stories and anecdotes about fishing, including the author's own experiences and those of other anglers he has met. Throughout the book, the author's love and respect for the sport of fly fishing shines through, making it a must-read for anyone who shares his passion for the art of angling.In A Series Of Conversations With Some Account Of The Habits Of Fishes Belonging To The Genus Salmo.
