Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Modern Angler, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprising Angling in All Its Branches in Two Parts The system I have laid down in the course of this work for making the different flies, will supersede any thing of the sort that I have seen in any previous publication. There is one particular point I wish to draw attention to, -viz., the method I take to strip' the feather with which I make the Winged fly, for by that means the wings will be parted when the fly is made, without the trouble of whipping the silk across two or three times, which I have seen recommended, and will be a much neater fly, and swim a great deal lighter.

Excerpt from The Modern Angler, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprising Angling in All Its Branches in Two Parts The art of angling has been practised for ages past, and at times we find the most experienced anglers at fault, though being more practised than their less fortunate brethren, sooner recover their position in the silent warfare. Being strongly urged by some of my friends to publish a treatise on this most innocent and recreative amusement, I have complied with their request, and now lay before the lovers of the rod and line more than thirty year's experience, in as concise and lucid a manner as my humble abilities will allow. I should have hesitated to follow the different writers on this subject, had I not been confident there was room for improvement - a few of which, I believe, I have been able to supply. You will find that the flies and baits, and the different methods of angling that I shall in the course of this work enumerate, will take salmon, trout, greyling, pike, or other fish, in any river in the united kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland, if care and strict attention he paid to the precepts I shall put forth. The system I have laid down in the course of this work for making the different flies, will supersede any thing of the sort that I have seen in any previous publication. There is one particular point I wish to draw attention to, - viz., the method I take to strip the feather with which I make the winged fly, for by that means the wings will be parted when the fly is made, without the trouble of whipping the silk across two or three times, which I have seen recommended, and will be a much neater fly, and swim a great deal lighter.
