Nymph Fishing in the Southern Hemisphere - R.H. Wigram | Facsimile Edition, Copy No. 45 | 1992
Added: Jul 26, 2026

Nymph Fishing in the Southern Hemisphere by RH Wigram was among the earliest works to address nymph fishing technique specifically in Australian and New Zealand conditions, at a time when the method — pioneered in England by G.E.M. Skues — was still a matter of controversy among traditional dry-fly anglers. Original editions are now very scarce; this is a numbered facsimile reprint.
