With guidance and tips on modern tackle, fly lines and flies, and many delightful photographs, the 'Little Book of Fly Fishing for Trout' will help you to improve your tactics, techniques and your catches.

Classic writing remains "classic" only insofar as people want to read it. Angling historians may study the evolution of tackle or tying techniques, or perhaps the methods of fishing used hundreds of years ago, but the wonderful stories about fishing are read and reread only because they give pleasure today; because they give us insights into why we fish and the nature of our passion; and because they are well written. This book offers more than twenty of the best classic fishing stories that have stood the inescapable test of time.

Wisdoms and Frustrations of fly fishing in an irreverent poem, illustrated in color. If you've ever had a day you could not catch a fish, this gives you the reasons, and possibly the solutions. A few secret flies for the Bighorn River in Montana are pictured.
