Catching Big Fish on Light Fly Tackle

Rating:
Summary: Good solid work
Review: A good, solid work on the excitement of trout fishing. The book is easy to read, contains lots of solid information, and is one of the better books I have read on the subject. I would say it is appropriate for the intermediate fisherperson, not basic enough for beginners, but almost anyone with an interest in fishing should enjoy it. And in Coon Valley, that's almost everyone!

Summary: Next Best Thing
Review: I've had the great fortune to have fished with the author, Tom Wendleburg, many times. If you don't have that same opportunity, you can do the next best thing. Buy this book and learn not only how to catch big fish on light fly tackle, but so much more. Pick up insights into productive flies, effective fish catching techniques, and apply Tom's creative approachs to fly presentation for a variety of fish species. The book makes not only great reading for entertainment value, but for me, a highly useful source of reference material for those flyfishing dilemmas we all face from time time. If your interest is to improve your flyfishing skills, or if you just enjoy reading solid flyfishing literature, this is a book for you.
