The book is divided into months, and for each month there is provided information on each fly, including descriptions, habits and habitat, how they can be used, what fish they are best for, and much more. This volume constitutes a must-have for the British fly fisher, and it would make for a fantastic addition to angling collections. Contents include; "March", "Needle Brown", "Early Brown", "Little Early Brown", "Early Spinner", "Gravel Spinner", "Red Brown", "Early Dun", "Blue Drake", "Orange Drake", "White Dun", "Dark Pied Dun", "Red Ant", "White Legged Dun", "July", "Spotted Whisk Drake", "Dottered Dun", "Black Ant", "Spotted Whisk Drake", "Fringed Dun", "Orange Brown", "Light Pied Dun", "Coral Eyed Drake", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with that in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of fishing.
