About This Item
(Johannesburg: Macmillan, 1986) 0869542834. 8vo; laminated pictorial boards; pp. (viii) + 207, incl. index; maps; illustrations in text; full-colour plates. Boards partially sunned; some foxing to edges, occasional fox spot elsewhere. Good to very good condition. (Curtis, p. 140) "Trout in South Africa is one of the best books ever written in South Africa on the acclimatization and further propagation of trout in our country over the years. It is meticulously researched, incredibly detailed, full of interesting recollections and always very easy to read. The insights Bob Crass gives on trout biology and behaviour and how to fish for them, are the fruits of virtually an entire lifte spent as a scientific officer working for the Natal Parks Board and his close involvement for many years with the Underberg/Himeville Trout Fishing Club. And of course his experience of many years fishing trout waters far and wide." - Paul Curtis: Fishing the Margins - A History and Complete Bibliography of Fly Fishing in South Africa .
