Sunlit Waters: An Introduction to the Art of Fishing and Light Tackle

"This book gives an extremely practical exposition of the methods and advantages of fishing with light tackle…. and brings fishing history in India up-to-date. Captain Conway draws a clear distinction between the use and technique of the fixed spool threadline outfit and of the multiplier outfit. His instructions explain many deeply hid snags which the older fishermen have learnt by bitter experience. His advice is not to try to mix up the two outfits but to get the right stuff for each outfit, reel, line and rod. This will save much disappointment and increase enjoyment (and success) vastly. How to fish, where to fish, and when to fish are all dealt with very thoroughly and there are some excellent hints on making up tackle."
