Paperback. Condition: New. The Dry Fly and Fast Water was written to fill a need created by the coming of the brown trout to America. The British flies and methods that followed it over here proved inapplicable. Therefore, it remained for fishing expert George La Branche to promulgate a new, distinctly American school of dry-fly… angling. The proof of its validity is that today it is still widely practiced here. This remains one of the great classics of American fishing literature, covering everything from wonderfuldescriptions of fish behavior to details of the insects they feed on and the artificial flies that imitate those foods.

Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: No Jacket: As Issued. xxxviii, [1], 224 pp.[1914] In Slipcase. Gary LaFontaine and Greycliff Press thought enough of this title to make it the only 'classic' fly fishing book they ever reprinted. But if you think this is only a reprint, you'ld be sadly mistaken. Included within… are things that make this special: A new introduction by Paul Schullery, color plates of the La Branche flies, appendix one - Casting the Curve, appendix two - Skues - La Branche correspondence 1925 -1947, appendix three - Insects Imitated, and an Index. All of these help add to the understanding of Wyandanch Club member George La Branche's classic work. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Limited Edition.
