Excellent starter book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I purchased this book right after I started fly fishing, and found it to be a gentle yet surprisingly complete "starter pack" for somebody wanting an introduction to the sport. Basics of almost all aspects of the sport are covered, along with important terminology and concepts. I would *highly* recommend this to a person considering getting involved with this wonderful and relaxing pastime.
Just What I Needed

I checked this book out of our public library and now I am buying it. The photography is sharp and clear worthy of a coffee table book. The information is complete without being to wordy. This book is a great start to fly fishing and I know my copy will be well used as I glean the information from it over and over again.
My instructors love this book!

I coordinate outdoor workshops for women, and I'm always looking for guides, books, and supplements for our participants. I found this book about a year ago, and my Fly Fishing Instructors just love it! It's a good reference for those who have seen or practiced casting techniques and they want to refresh their memory.
