THE ANGLER’S WORKSHOP 
Rodmaking for Beginners 
By PERRY D. FRAZER 
A UNIQUE work, bringing the science of rodmaking up to the very moment and 
epitomizing the knowledge and experience of experts for the guidance of the 
average man. The evolution of bait-casting principles has made Mr. Frazer’s 
books supersede all previous publications on the subject. 
Every angler—young or old—who is fond of adapting his rods and tackle to his own 
ideas of what they should be, will find in this book a large fund of information gathered 
by the author in years of study, experiment and practical experience in fishing, tourna¬ 
ment casting and at the work bench. He theorizes and speculates not at all. He tells 
“the how” of everything connected with rodmaking in a way that makes results certain. 
All explanations are simple and easily followed. 
Separate chapters are devoted to each of a half dozen types of bait-casting rods; to 
tarpon, surf and light salt water rods; bass and trout, salmon and tournament fly-rods. 
Complete specifications of well known types are given, and the chapter on split bamboo 
rodmaking is the most comprehensive treatise on the subject ever published. Indispens¬ 
able in the angler’s library. 
Cloth, i8o pages, four full-page illustrations, 6o working drawings, making plain 
every feature of the text. Postpaid, $i. 
FOREST AND STREAM PUB. CO., 127 Franklin Si, New York City 
nament at Columbus. Each had scored 183 out of the 
200. Some of the dailies referred to Upson as a dark 
horse, but obviously they did not know or else failed 
to consider his lopg, good record. 
_ The conditions of the amateur championship were 200 
targets divided into 160 singles at 18yds. and 20 pairs at 
16yds.; $20 entrance; high guns; $200 added to the purse, 
which was made up as follows: 
Sixty-six entries at $16 summed up $1,056. The $200 
added to the purse made a total of $1,256. 
The winners and winnings were as follows: 
D. A. Upson, $226.10. 
F. E. Foltz, $188.40. 
Woolfolk Henderson, $150.70. 
Bert Dunnill, $125.60. 
Guy V. Dering, $113.05. 
Jesse S. Young, $S7.90. 
Harry I. Hess and John R. Livingston, $69.00 each. 
S. A. Huntley, Wm. Wettleaf and H. D. Gibbs, $50.25 
each. 
Harry Dunnill, Wm. Ridley and A. P. Smith, $25.10 
each. 
The winner was D. A. Upson, of Cleveland, O., well 
known during many years past as one of the most expert 
amateurs either at live birds or targets. He shot in 
excellent form, and his score, 188 out of 200, may be 
classed as of the highest order. He broke 36 out of ;a 
possible 40 in the doubles, which is truly a swift pace. 
Mr. F. E. Foltz was going with all the appearance of 
a winner till the latter part of the contest, as he had 
missed only 3 out of his first 140. He scored 37 out of 
40 at the doubles. However, he was overtaken in the 
last three events. The 200 targets were divided into ten 
strings of 20 each, of which Nos. 3 and 8 were doubles.
