ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Paperback, 1999). 1999 1st edition. 8vo paperback (151 x 227mm). Ppxxx,190. B/w illustrations by Jeff Wynn.

"This book deals only with trout - and it does that very well. The chapter on 'Reading the Water', may be worth the price of the book." (Bernard "Lefty" Kreh). "Tom Zacoi has put together a solid introductory text that gives the reader both the lure and lore of fly fishing; both the nuts and bolts and a smell of the flowers along the way. It's encouraging to see beginners text that does more than simply give us 'Just the facts, Ma'am!' (Gary Borger). Chapters include:- What is a flyfisherman?; An American classic; Let's gear up; Spruce Creek; Fly lines, terminal tackle and knots; Some memorable students; The casting clinic; America's first lady of fly fishing; Entomology; Will the real "Mr. Ants" please stand up!; Where the trout live; Earl "Duke" Shapiro; Reading the water; 20,000 leagues under the sea; Let's go fly fishing; One of us has to go!; Catch and release; "Lefty"; For the road. The copyright page states that "Three thousand deluxe copies and one hundred twenty-five limited edition copies" of this book were produced.
