Matching the Hatch: Stillwater, River & Stream: The Original Classic Reference, Completely Revised & Updated Pocket Edition - Softcover
Synopsis
A classic fishing book — now fully updated and available in paperback — deserving of a place in any angler's library
Matching the hatch by using an artificial fly sufficiently similar to the creatures on which the trout are feeding can greatly increase your chances of success.
This completely revised and updated pocket edition with over 240 enlarged photographs will help one choose suitable flies and suggest how one can fish them in a way that will catch fish: to rely less on luck and more on judgement.
The remarkable macro-photography of the aquatic creatures on which trout feed (now featuring enlarged photographs in this pocket edition) is complemented by many of the top experts* on flyfishing and flytying who have agreed to tie flies exclusively for Matching the Hatch. In most instances the flies illustrated are their own designs which have now become standard patterns used throughout the world.
Simply an outstanding reference book - a must for all fishermen
[* These experts include Jon Beer, Brian Clarke, Alice Conba, Donald Downs, Peter Gathercole, Malcolm Greenhalgh, Melvin Grey, Derek Hoskin, Nigel Jackson, Charles Jardine, Steffan Jones, Peter Masters, Guy Mawle, Peter O'Reilly, Steve Parton, Neil Patterson, John Riegen, Andrew Ryan, Bernard Venables, Conrad Voss Bark, John Wilshaw and Davy Wotton]
