PREFACE. 



THE object the author of this 

 little treatise had in view when the 

 following pages were prepared for 

 the press, was that the London Angler 

 might have the advantage of plain 

 directions, without the irksomeness 

 consequent on wading through the 

 mass of extraneous matter with which 

 works on Angling are generally filled.
