What reading level is The British Anglers Lexicon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The stockings or socks worn should be hand-knitted, made from Alloa wool, which is strong and stands the wear and tear of going through briars, furze, &c. , and heather mixture or grey are the best colours.
Dropper is the name given to each artificial fly depending from the casting line above the terminal or stretcher fly, which is at the extreme point of the casting line. The lowest one is called the first dropper, the next the second dropper, and if there are more they go on thus by numbers. ...These droppers should hang on a link of gut, in length about two and a half inches. Some anglers, in making up their casts, have the first dropper two inches, the second three inches, the third four inches ; but this is only a fancy, as they do well of equal length, if not better. The idea of the varied lengths is that they would all alight on the water at the same time. The objection to long droppers is that they are apt to get twisted round the casting line more readily than short droppers, and are not so easily shaken loose, as they occasionally throw themselves into a regular knot when casting against a wind.
