Excerpt from Routledge's Handbook of Fishing: With Illustrations The fins of fish consist of thin elastic membrane, supported by bony rays, and are denominated according to their position - dorsal on the back, pectoral on the breast, central near the vent, anal that between the vent and the tail, and caudal the tail fins. The dorsal and ventral fins appear to balance the fish, and the pectoral to push it forward; while the tail fins are the grand instruments of motion, and enable the creature to dart forward almost as rapidly as the bullet from a gun.

Excerpt from Routledge's Handbook of Fishing: With Illustrations What can be more delightful than angling? Not indeed so much on account of the fish we may catch, but for the pleasantness of the recreation itself, for the cool streams, the shady trees, the little sunny nooks, the tiny or gigantic cascades, the meandering rills, the still pools, "with sedges overhung;" the picturesque mill-wheels, the deep mill-ponds, "smooth sheeted by the flood;" and above all, for the hair breadth escapes, for the duckings, for the hazards, for the triumphs. Ah, I do not wonder at boys being fond of angling, it is almost an instinct with them, and has long been a favourite amusement with boys of all degrees, ages and constitutions.
