Fishing and Thinking

This reprint of Luce's classic book on fishing describes angling for salmon, sea trout and brown trout on the streams, rivers, tarns and lakes of Ireland. The thinking side of things ranges from angling problems proper to weightier matters. It includes notes on the history of places where the author has fished, notes on boatcraft, on the effects of hydro-electric dams on salmon runs, and studies in the cause of the "rise" and "take".
