What reading level is Mostly About Trout book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The stalker does not use a Lewis gun to pump lead into a stag at short range. So, between a dry-fly man and a trout there is an understanding on both sides. The trout may flee to cover if he sees man, rod or line ; he must be shown only the fly and a link or two of finest gut. Not only that, but the fly must float cheerily and independently, as if alive, and there must be no sign of its being dragged by the floating line in any direction out of the natural course followed by the living insects ...poised on the little eddies and swirls on a chalk-stream's surface. Whether the arti- 147 148 MOSTLY ABOUT TROUT ficial fly need bear any resemblance to what it is supposed to represent, excepting in size, shape and movements, is a debatable point about which some fishermen discourse on paper, but whereon none would dare to express his innermost thoughts in the Fly-fisher's Club. So much for the dry-fly fisher. But what about the trout ? There are two sides to every contract, and if the fisher on the one part is bound by rules and etiquette, what of the fish on the other part ?
