Item description from seller

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2005). (2005) ND 1st edition reprint. 4to (190 x 237mm). Ppx,163. Colour plates of flies, b/w photographs, brief bibliography. Pictorial laminated boards, issued without a dust-wrapper. Name to paste-down. Slight use but a very good copy. "Fly fishing small flies has its challenges, thrills, and rewards. The fishing is best, according to author Ed Engle, when there is as little as possible between the angler and the trout. And that means size 20 or smaller flies and cobweb-thin tippets. In Fishing Small Flies, Engle refines and modifies basic fly-fishing techniques for small-fly fishing. You'll learn how to find and observe trout in small-fly water; evaluate the major small-fly hatches; fish both on the surface and below; and strike, hook, play, and land trout on tiny flies. Presentation is just as important as choosing the right fly, Engle stresses in this companion volume to Tying Small flies, the book that details the most fishable small flies and the best and simplest ways to tie them. Although each book can stand on its own, together they provide the perfect foundation for successfully fishing small-fly waters." Chapters include: Anatomy of a small-fly river; Tackle for fishing small flies; The power of observation; Basic small-fly nymphing techniques; Basic dry-fly and in-the-film small-fly techniques; The fine arts of striking, hooking, playing, and landing trout on small flies; Fishing the major small-fly hatches; The elements of style. .
