Webster discusses the importance of patience, observation, and respect for the natural world when fishing, and he emphasizes the importance of preserving fish populations for future generations.Overall, The Angler and the Loop-Rod is a classic work of angling literature that provides valuable insights into the history and practice of fishing with a loop-rod.
