Number 2 in the Halford Dry Fly Series. The first serious attempt to represent the natural insect as found on the water. "This is undoubtedly written by a great angler, but who was, however, not a great naturalist. It gives details of aquatic insects of the Test. This book is based on his earlier book Floating Flies And How To Dress Them, which is incidentally probably more famous.
