Item description from seller

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (s/hand, Paperback, 1991). 1991 1st edition. 8vo paperback (151 x 228mm). Pp159. B/w photographs. Tanned and marked with some use but a good copy. "Tailwaters (the stretches of river below dams) are notorious for their populations of enormous trout. In fact some of the best trophy trout fishing in the United States occurs in tailwaters like the South Platte below Spinney Reservoir, the Green at Flaming Gorge Dam, the Frying Pan, the San Juan, the Bighorn, the Colorado at Lee's Ferry, and the West Branch of the Delaware. Trout growth rates are phenomenal because of the rich aquatic systems provided by the upstream dam. In Fly Fishing Tailwaters Ed Engle. presents the first thorough discussion of the unique characteristics of tailwaters. He talks in detail about the features common to all tailwater fisheries and reveals why they produce such fabulous trout habitat. He also shares the successful techniques he's learned in more than twenty years of fishing the tailwaters - strategies that apply to controlled rivers everywhere." Chapters include:- The paradox; Professor Ward and the bugs; Accouterments; The nympher's art and other deep-water diversions; When the trout rise - dry flies, emergers, and some razzle-dazzle; The Champagne of tailwater angling - fishing the midges; Special cases and curiosities; The enigma - loving tailwaters to death. .…
