Synopsis
The Fly Fisher's Guide by George C. Bainbridge. The book is a comprehensive early 19th?century manual that extols the virtues of fly fishing and then guides the reader through an entire system of practice. Bainbridge argues fly fishing offers superior exercise, scenery, cleanliness, and creative engagement compared with other forms of angling, and then outlines the practical apparatus and craft required. The text covers rods, lines, reels, gut and weed, hooks, hackles, furs, and dubbings, and provides step-by-step instructions for tying flies with appropriate proportions and colors, complemented by plates showing representative patterns. It explains how to select and prepare equipment, maintain rods and lines, and fashion a pannier, pocket books, and a small cabinet to organize materials. Detailed sections treat Salmon, Trout, Grayling, and other species, with guidance on seasons, tides, and weather, as well as descriptions of night fishing, trolling, and running-line techniques. The work also discusses ethics, the protection of rivers, and the economics of gear, making it a foundational reference for serious anglers.
