Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The Houghton Club is one of the most exclusive and oldest flyfishing clubs in the world. Its 15 miles of the Middle Test have been looked after since 1887 by three generations of the Lunn family.

This book is a nostalgic look at the author's family's famous chalkstream. It is also a guide to dry fly technique, with many practical tips, and an up-to-date history of modern flyfishing. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
