An important work by Vincent C. Marinaro, one of the most influential figures in twentieth-century American dry-fly fishing.
In In the Ring of the Rise, Marinaro continues the careful observations of trout and aquatic insects that made his earlier A Modern Dry-Fly Code a landmark in angling literature. Here, his attention turns to the rise itself: the subtle disturbances of the water's surface that reveal how trout feed and respond to natural insects.
Through close observation, photography and thoughtful analysis, Marinaro examines the relationship between rise forms, feeding behaviour and the presentation of the artificial fly. His approach encourages the angler to look beyond the simple appearance of a rising fish and to understand the activity taking place beneath the surface.
First published in 1976, the book remains a rewarding study of selective trout and the art of observation.
This copy is the first American edition, bound in green cloth with silver lettering to the spine. The large-format volume contains 184 pages, illustrated with black-and-white photographs and drawings, together with a selection of colour photographs.
The book itself is in very good condition, with minor bumping and wear to the spine and corners. The original dust jacket is present but shows fraying and creasing along the edges.
A distinguished contribution to American fly-fishing literature, and a natural companion to Marinaro's A Modern Dry-Fly Code.
Marinaro's observations of trout behaviour build upon the ideas first explored in A Modern Dry-Fly Code. Discover further works on selective trout, fly presentation and American angling history in our collection of classic fly-fishing literature .
