Title: The Treasury of Angling.
Description: NY, Royal Ridge/Golden Press, (1963). VG. Angling is the art of catching a fish with a reel, a line, and a hook. Its roots lie deep in the past. The tradition which. received its form and best expression from Izaak Walton and Charles Cotton, permits the angler to be guileful and deceptive, and to bring bear on the contest whatever wisdom and experience he been able to accumulate - for so will the fish. The fisherman who has learned his craft is an ichthyologist, aware of the life cycle, feeding habits, and temperament of the game fish he seeks. He is an amateur entomologist, a keen and knowledgeable observer of the seasonal insect life of the water he fishes. Blue binding.
