THE ANGLERS WORKSHOP 
Rodmaking for Beginners 
By PERRY D. FRAZER • 
Not only Americans, but anglers of Great Britain and nearly every European State, 
South Africa, Australia, Canada, are making their fishing rods under the simple instruc¬ 
tions laid down by the author in this useful little manual. A Japanese, after reading the 
book took up rod repairing for his fellow countrymen as a business. An Englishman 
followed it in making several of the sixty-five rods that he has in his collection. A 
Russian appreciated the book so much that he suggested a Russian translation. The 
British sportsmen’s papers have quoted from it time and time again. In that country it 
has helped bring about a great change in rod types, and to attract attention to the ex¬ 
cellence of American fishing rods. In fact “Rodmaking for Beginners” has become the 
standard manual wherever fishing with rod and reel is practiced. 
The reason is obvious. The book is written in plain English, and all the details are 
set down so simply that a boy can follow them. All of the types of rods used on fresh 
and salt water are described and specifications given. Separate chapters cover all details, 
and the one on split cane rodmaking is the only comprehensive treatise on that subject 
ever published. 
Cloth, 180 pages, four full-page illustrations, 60 working drawings, making plain 
every feature of the text. Postpaid, $1.00.
