Opis: My Fishing Days and Fishing Ways - Martin J. W.

Excerpt from My Fishing Days and Fishing Ways: Being a Record of Experiences Gathered During Forty-Six Years of an Angler's Life While Fishing for So-Called Coarse Fishes in the Waters and Streams of Sixteen Countries and Twenty-Five Rivers

My Dear Brother Fisherman, - I make no apology for putting this volume on your already loaded bookshelves, because I have faith to believe that you will welcome this addition to the never-ending stream of angling literature.

The two volumes that I issued last year have met with phenomenal success, beyond my wildest hopes; and I thank my friends with a very grateful heart. To quote a well-known advertisement, they now "want more."

They are good enough to say that a volume of my own personal experiences and wanderings - on river, lake, and stream, here, there, and everywhere - would be warmly received by them, and treated in a sympathetic manner.

This volume does not pretend to be a guide to fishing, in the ordinary cut-and-dried sense of such term; but in its pages I take you into my confidence, and talk to you as one old fisherman talks to his mates, telling you what I saw on the various waters, the fish I found, how I succeeded and how I failed.

This book is a plain statement of fact and personal experiences, the pages of which furnish glimpses of natural history, descriptions of the waters and their characteristics, scenery and surroundings, together with a few historical notes connected therewith, which will perhaps have more than a passing interest for the wandering angler.
