fun." Rods of many kinds are available, and the 

 clock-like mechanism of the modern reel makes some 

 of them luxuries to own. Experts provide fish hooks 

 of wonderful strength, beauty and finish. Lines are 

 braided from the poorest linen to the costliest silk, 

 and even baits which would deceive the trained eye 

 are manufactured. 



If you would grow up a strong, courageous, 

 intelligent, generous, honest man, I invite your earnest 

 attention to the few simple lessons bound within this 

 little volume. They may include some things which 

 will afford you comfort to that end.
