Excerpt from Salmon-Casts and Stray Shots
The Author of the following pages has, in a former work, expressed his conviction that the more experienced and successful an Angler becomes, the more likely he is to discover arcana which he has constant opportunity of turning to account. Few first-rate fishers care to proclaim their secrets; and although, when under able guidance, a young enthusiast of the rod may have tolerable sport, he yet remains quite innocent of the means which procured it. He finds this out, vexatiously enough, the first time he trusts to his own resources, especially if change in weather or water should require a difference of tactics which his former guide would at once have foreseen.
