Fine new copy in dust-wrapper. Three laminated information cards laid in, as mentioned in the text. Andrew Bett takes a new look at why salmon take a fly in fresh water: a new theory and its practical application for the fly fisherman who owns a barometer. The author's theory predicted a repertoire of salmon behaviour which was later confirmed to his satisfaction in seven years of study. The book also addresses the same question to trout and sea-trout fishing. Chapters include: The generations before us; The long learning curve; The barometric study; The barometric breakthrough; When chips are down; Trout fishing and the evening rise; A barometer beside the river. An interesting notion with a long pedigree. The three cards included are: How to use the CTS barometric watch; Salmon fly size indicator; The Sturdy Length/Weight Scale for salmon.
