To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The char, in ascending from Windermere to spawn, in variably turn to the left, and ascend the Brathay though to no great distance and as invariably so far at least as spawning purposes are concerned avoid the lake descended waters of the Rothay. They also spawn lower THE CHAR. 263 Although these fish in a culinary point of view are deservedly the most highly prized of all our permanently fresh water species, we are sorry to say that they are seldom attainable by the angler's skill. Of late year...s, however, they have certainly risen more freely in the meres of the north of Eng- land than in former times ; but the capture of a char by rod and line is still regarded as an uncom- mon occurrence. In angling for this fish the same flies may be used as those best adapted for the smaller sized lake-trouts ; and as the latter may be said to occur wherever the former is found, the sportsman has the better chance of making amends for the probable disappointment which will attend his pursuit of the one, by a more successful capture of the other.
