This guide discusses in detail the main species of game fish and where to find them; fishing tackle, methods, and tactics; the authors' favorite flies and nymphs and how to dress them; how to fish rivers, lakes, reservoirs, estuarine waters, and sea and freshwater lochs in all seasons; and conservation issues; along with a separate chapter on the art of casting. Fascinating accounts describe the capture of fish in all parts of the U.K. and Ireland as well as in Alaska, Iceland, Lapland, and Sweden.
