Synopsis

Excerpt from Grayling Fishing in South Country Streams

Here is a peculiar and indescribable charm and fascination in grayling fishing which few whose tastes lie m the direction of this pro-eminently winter pastime can have failed to realise. The fish, indeed, has been designated the Lorelei Of the river, and rightly so. But there is this all-important difi'erence betwixt the German siren and the gray ling: the former by her silvery voice enticed the unfortunate boatman to his doom, but the grayling, through the all-alluring interest it excites in the breast of the angler, falls in the end a victim to its own enchantments.
