This is a terrific “how-to” book for fly fishing. Beginning with a description of the equipment and lures, one learns the appropriate gear to use for hooking a variety of fish. Tips are given for specific techniques required for a successful catch. Fly fishing is done in both salt and fresh water, wherever the water is fairly shallow along coastlines and shores. Some of the fish included are trout, steelhead, salmon, tarpon, bonefish, permits, and bass. Colorful, close-up photos are large, some crossing the gutter, and informative. There are dangers, so anglers need to be cautious of the conditions of the water, wildlife (ex. bears), and weather. Glossary and index included.
