To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Spring tides generally answer best, and from half flood to half ebb. If there is much floating weed, from half an hour before to half an hour after high water will alone suit, but, if abundant, even in this short time many may be landed. When fishing with two lines be careful to secure one whilst you hold the other, or you will very likely lose your tackle if you hook a large fish. If you are likely to follow this kind of fishing much, I would recommend you to procure a piece of holly or beech ...wood, 18 inches long and an inch in diameter, shod with an iron point at the bottom, and having a ring or ferrule at the top ; this you can drive into the sand or shingle, and wind the line on when you give up your sport. I do not recommend more than one hook for each line, unless you use a throwing-stick, in which case a second may be placed 18 inches above the first, which should be attached a foot only above the lead. Nos. 4 and 5, fig. 62, for ground-fishing with Squid or Cuttle bait ; with smaller hooks, No.
