A practical guide to tying the fly patterns that form a basic collection for Tasmanian trout fishing conditions, written by Tony Sloane and published in 1986.
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.
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.
Dan Sprod's biography of Jorgen Jorgenson — one of the most extraordinary figures in Tasmanian history, and arguably in world history of the period. The Usurper is the definitive biography — 718 pages, fully indexed, including the full text of Jorgenson's own account of the Iceland 'revolution.'
