Rob Sloane's revised and updated edition of The Truth About Trout — first published in 1983 and considered one of the most insightful and practical books on trout fishing in Australia. Sloane's approach was always to challenge received wisdom about trout behaviour and fishing technique — the original title's premise being that much of what anglers believed about trout was incorrect or oversimplified.
Photographs of the birds of Tasmania's Bruny Island, accompanied by a corresponding black and white drawing to colour in.
FIRST PUBLISHED: Melbourne, Georgian House, 1951. First edition. Illustrated throughout with full-page black and white photographs by Norman Taylor, this book covers Wigram's fishing on Tasmania's rivers, including the Macquarie, Liffey and St Patrick's Rivers and the Break O'Day district.
