What reading level is The book of the Pike, With a Chapter On Spinning for Trout in Lakes And Rivers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The great number of fish that escape with the ordinary tackle after being once struck is undoubtedly one of the most forcible objections which has been hitherto urged against spinning. The average of such losses has been computed at from fifty to sixty per cent, and that esti- mate is under rather than over the mark, as will be dis- covered by any one who takes' the trouble of keeping a register of his sport.
" This undesirable result is mainly attributable to the large number of hooks and tr...iangles — the latter ranging from three to five — commonly employed on a good-sized flight. These, I unhesitatingly assert, are not only use- less, but distinctly mischievous, bT)th as regards the spinning of the bait and the basketing of the fish when hooked. Upon the bait they act by impairing its bril- liancy and attractiveness, rendering it flabby and inelas- tic ; and when a transposition of the hooks becomes necessary, by generally destroying it altogether. Upon the Pike they operate only as fulcrums by which he is enabled to work out the hold of such hooks as were al- ready fast.
