PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION. 



THE first edition sold so quickly that only half 

 of the kindly Press Notices were in time to 

 aid in its sale. 



So numerous were the letters of appreciation 

 and orders for further copies that a second 

 edition became a matter of course. 



I have striven successfully to cope with 

 letters from my readers asking for advice as 

 to places and fishing gear, and many of my 

 lines and traces have gone in samples. 



It is a pleasure to me to aid a brother 

 sportsman, and I hope to be equal to replying 

 to those who may not get all the information 

 they may require from this new edition. 



P. G.
