Quetico Fall Fishing Legends is a guide for wilderness canoe travelers who want to learn simple and effective techniques for catching lake trout, smallmouth bass, and walleyes. Written by an avid wilderness angler with fifty years of travel experience in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and Quetico Provincial Park, it reveals essential fishing tackle to pack for a fall canoe trip, then shows anglers where and how to catch canoe country fish during their autumn feeding frenzy. The book explains why a simple jig and plastic twister tail combination trumps more expensive and complex fishing methods as the premier lure for all canoe country fish species. Stories gleaned from dozens of fall canoe trips entertain and inform the reader of dynamic changes in Quetico's fish populations and landscape over the past five decades. But above all, the book is a celebration of autumn, when short days and cold nights set the forest ablaze with color and fishing is at its best.

Tenkara fishing can be seen as a streamlined counterpart to western fly-fishing. The equipment is designed to direct focus to the actual fishing and catching of the fish, not to cause a major preoccupation with the equipment. Only a rod, tenkara line and fly are necessary for tenkara fishing (no reel is used). The appeal of tenkara is its elegant simplicity. There are also other advantages of using the long tenkara rods when fishing in mountain streams, primarily the lightness of the line and delicate presentation. A long rod allows for precise placement of the fly on small pools and allows for holding the fly in place on the other side of a current. The other main advantage of using the long tenkara rod is precise control for manipulation of the fly. This is one mans story, from first learning the art of Tenkara in Japan to using the technique fishing around Dorset, UK.

Trout Tactics: A Comprehensive Guide For The Conventional Tackle Angler, is THE guide western and all trout anglers have been looking for. With apologies to our fly fishing brethren, who gasp at the notion of catching a trout with an earthworm, the number of anglers who use hardware or bait to catch trout is staggering compared to those ho wield wispy rods to toss microscopic flies. ***** And yet so very few books are written for those who prefer spinners, hard plastics and bait to size 22 caddis imitations, or deep water trolls instead of woolly worms and floating fly lines. What makes this book different is that it contains how to information for those who put results ahead of form. ***** There must be at least 1,000 ways to catch a trout, and yet so few of us possess the know-how to switch tactics as we go from high mountain waters to major rivers to deep-water reservoirs to small creeks. From the beginning trout angler to the veteran whose practiced eye can spot a fish behind a rock forty yards away, Cal Kellogg takes you through just about every setup and every rig used by conventional tackle anglers today.

Local streams in the Lincoln, Maine, area set the stage for what would become author Paul Freeman Thibodeau's lifelong passion. His father, Paul Francis Thibodeau, taught him the rudiments of fly fishing. Later in life, with increased skills and knowledge, the younger Thibodeau ventured farther afield in Penobscot County in hopes of catching larger salmon, trout, and smallmouth bass.

In "Wild about Maine," he shares tales that paint an image of the outdoorsmen, the breathtaking landscape with Mount Katahdin in the background, and the challenges of fishing in the pristine waters of the Penobscot River. This collection of stories includes anecdotes about the interaction between fishermen, the prolific fish, and the area's abundant wildlife. In "The Taking of Vinegar Hill," Thibodeau tells of searching for a secret trout pond with an old friend. "The Never-Ending Mouse Tale" narrates a lighthearted story of sharing one's home with an unwanted furry critter.

Inspiring, educational, and entertaining, "Wild about Maine" provides a look at modern-day "Mainers," the state's wild creatures, and the wilderness they share.
