"Brook and River Trouting" by Harfield H. Edmonds and Norman N. Lee is a manual on modern North Country methods of fishing, likely written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a comprehensive guide to various fishing techniques, particularly focusing on fly fishing for trout, and emphasizes practical approaches suited for both novices and experienced anglers. The authors shed light on the intricacies of fly dressing, the importance of understanding local insect life, and strategies for successful fishing in North Country waters. The opening of the book discusses the authors' motivation for creating a practical guide to trout fly dressing due to the vague advice prevalent in existing fishing literature. In the preface, they outline their intention to provide detailed descriptions and illustrations of flies, which include specific patterns suitable for different conditions throughout the fishing season. They also emphasize the significance of adapting fishing methods to the specific characteristics of the rivers and streams in the North Country. By setting the foundation for understanding trout behaviors and fly fishing techniques, the authors prepare readers for the subsequent chapters, which delve deeper into the specifics of fly fishing methodologies and tackle recommendations.
