American Salmon-Fisherman. 



The American Salmon-Fisherman. By HENRY P. WELLS. 

 "With Map and Illustrations. Square Post 8vo, Cloth, $1 00. 



The success of Mr. Wells's " Fly-Rods and Fly-Tackle " has made his name familiar 

 to thousands of American anglers. "The American Salmon-Fisherman," like the for- 

 mer work, is the fruit of the author's long experience and thoroughly practical knowl- 

 edge of this subject. The opening chapter tells how and where salmon-fishing may be 

 obtained, and contains a map and list of the salmon rivers in this country and in Can- 

 ada. It is followed by chapters on rods, reels, the gaff, flies, and casting the fly. The 

 text is illustrated throughout, and the value of Mr. Wells's instructions is enhanced by 

 their minuteness and lucidity, which make them perfectly comprehensible to the merest 

 novice. 



It will be read with interest by professional anglers, and for the vast amount of in- 

 formation it gives, both as to the best fishing localities and the best methods of taking 

 fish, it will be found indispensable for amateurs. ... It is a work greatly needed, and 

 supplies a demand long felt by the disciples of Izaak Walton. Boston Evening Trav-
