It would be at once idle and' unfair, on my part, to pretend that all that is set down in this book is the result of my own observation, know ledge,. And experience; for much of it I am indebted to older heads than my own; still, since I first fished the Yorkshire waters, now more than twenty years ago, I have made a point of recording every matter of moment which I have noticed on the rivers, or have heard from my fellow-fishermen.
