Any Luck? by Eugene V. Connett

Any Luck? is Eugene V. Connett's book for the trout fisherman, first published in New York by Windward House in 1933. Connett (1891 to 1969), a Princeton man, founded the Derrydale Press in 1927, the publisher whose finely made editions of sporting literature are still sought by collectors. Here he writes from experience about tackle, rods, lines and flies, where trout live, seasons and weather, and the craft of casting and working a stream, along with the philosophy and etiquette of the sport and a comparison of American and English methods. Kirkus, reviewing it on publication, called it a good gift book for trout fishermen, and its anecdotes keep the practical advice good company.
