TACKLE is something that anglers use part of the time and talk about and tinker with all of the time. No man can say what the proper tackle is for any kind of fishing as every experienced angler is likely to have ideas of his own on that sub­ject.

There are, however, certain conclusions that generations of skilled anglers have reached through cumula­tive experience and these are here set down for the benefit of the beginner and the inexpert; I also in­clude some opinions of my own and permission is hereby granted the reader to disagree with me.

It is natural for an angler to love fine tackle and he should buy the best whenever he can. However, all anglers are not rich men and this is especially true of bass fishermen since the black bass, because of his wide distribution, is essentially a poor man's game fish. For this reason I have tried to cover the tackle subject as practically as possible because it is appropriate, not necessarily expensive, tackle that makes fly fishing a pleasure in itself regardless of the heft of one's basket at the end of the day.
