A signed and numbered leatherbound limited edition of David Scholes' memoir of fly fishing the rivers of the Break O'Day district in north-east Tasmania — the South Esk, North Esk, Macquarie River, Liffey and the streams of the surrounding country.
David Scholes was Tasmania's most celebrated fly fishing writer. His books, beginning with Fly-Fisher in Tasmania in 1961, built a devoted following among Australian and international anglers and are now keenly sought by collectors of fishing literature. The Enchanting Break O'Day is one of his later works, focusing on the rivers and country he returned to throughout his life.
This leatherbound edition was produced in a limited run of 250 copies. This is number 175. It is signed by Scholes and includes a loose print of the Red Spinner fly, also signed and numbered 175/250 — making it a complete collector's item as issued.
