To the horror of dry-fly purists, Skues later wrote two books, <i>Minor Tactics of the Chalk Stream</i>, and <i>The Way of a Trout with a Fly</i>, which greatly influenced the development of wet fly fishing. In northern England and Scotland, many anglers also favored wet-fly fishing, where the technique was more popular and widely practiced than in southern England. One of Scotland's leading proponents of the wet fly in the early-to-mid 19th century was W.C.
