About this title

From the Back Cover:

The gentle sport of fly fishing changes in saltwater. Plunging surf, rip currents, salt spray, double-hauls into an on-shore howler. Saltwater fish are bigger, stronger, and faster than their fresh-water cousins, and a few might consider you prey instead of the other way around. The gentle sport becomes the wild sport. One thing's for sure - this ain't no trout stream.In this new and revised edition of his modern classic, Nick Curcione, a name that's almost synonymous with saltwater fly fishing, tells you how to catch saltwater fish. He'll show you casting, line control, presentation, fly patterns, rods and reels, lines and leaders - in short, everything you need to be successful. This thorough and practical book is your personal guide to angling in the salt.
