Abstract

Fly-Fishing in Maine Lakes

July 7, 1881 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "Fly-Fishing in Maine Lakes" by Chas E. Stevens. It seems strange that so few books on fishing and shooting have been produced in this country that either give valuable information on the subject, or have sufficient literary merit to atone at all for the lack of knowledge, which their authors have of the subject. Stevens's book is, perhaps, slightly above the average, though the elision of one-half to two-thirds of it would be a very manifest improvement. The largest of the Maine trout are taken late in the season, and at that time will rise to the large, gaudy flies.
