Damn, why did I spend all of those $$ for my 1938 copy of Stewart's book with the color plates.

Re: The mind of W.C. Stewart
I have no stones for you, Bob, merely a question. Whose books might be the other two on that list - Walton and Cotton, or maybe even Edmonds and Lee?BobSmith wrote: ...I will probably get some stick for this but I view Stewart and his book as a complete waste of time. If I were to list the ten worst angling books his would be in the top three.
Feel free to throw stones.

It would be interesting to know the reasons, at least for the third one. The other two don't interest me much. I might learn something from no. 3.BobSmith wrote:1st. Tactical Fly Fishing, by Jeremy Lucas.
