Synopsis

Question: Why another book on how to fly fish for trout?

Answer: Because all of the books out there offer too much information for a beginner.

This is all you need to know to get started. If you are a guy or gal who just wants to try this sport and enjoy the little time you have to go fishing, this book will get you on the stream and catching fish sooner than the others. Besides, once you understand and, more importantly, experience what is offered here, all the other books will make much more sense. Also included in the Fish Tales section are true stories outlining strategies, tactics and techniques as well as descriptions of some of my favorite fishing spots. Table of Contents:1. Introduction2. If being there isn't enough3. A primer on the fly and its life cycle4. Observation - the first step5. The cast6. Drag, drag, drag7. Up with dry, down with wet8. How many rises makes a rising fish?9. Give it a rest10. Leaders, tippets and two mandatory knots11. What flies to buy12. What rod to buy13. Gadgets and other stuff you will want14. Trout Unlimited15. Don't be a fly rod snob16. Hook'em and Cook'em vs Catch and Release17. More18. Fish Tales - 8 stories for your pleasure and further orientation.

Please check the reviews on Amazon.com before purchase and understand that this is not a comprehensive treatise on trout fishing with a fly - it is a freindly, easy to read and hopefully entertaining way to introduce yourself and others to the sport.
