Description
Before 1912, with the exception of a few magazine articles, there had been practically no American literature on the subject of the "floating fly" and its associated angling techniques. Emlyn Metcalf Gill, known as the "godfather of the dry fly" wrote this simple treatise as a means to introduce the American fly fisher to this beautiful 400-year-old art. The rudimentary knowledge in this classic handbook will, as the author claims, enable the novice "to follow along the delightful paths travelled by enthusiasts, and by practice become experts."
