Angles and Anecdotes on Trout Fishing.

447pp. Snocover. Illustrated by author. Printer\'s mastercopy with original hand written specification sheet.

Some dust smudging to text-block edges. Internally clean, bright and crisp.

A book like Hunting Trout emerges from the rich mulch of a lifetime of fly-fishing, and it brings the ripe fruits of broad experience and shrewd observation. That Tom Sutcliffeis the rarest of companions in piscatorial prose - wise, gentle, modest, inquiring and full of practical knowledge - makes our travels with him, from a first trout to a glorious autumn sojurn, all the more rewarding. Hunting trout is a happy admixture of anecdote and practical advice, the two brands of writing coalescing seamlessly. Nick Lyons

This elusive first edition was sold out in a blink of an eye and went to a second printing within the space of a year from the first impression. This particular first edition comes from my private collection of Printer\'s Mastercopies whilst I still actively represented the company that printed the book.
