Lefty Kreh's original edition of Fly Fishing in Salt Water pioneered a new territory for fly fishers. With over thirty thousand copies sold and the content fully updated, revised, and expanded, this third edition is the saltwater fly fisher's bible, based on firsthand experience by an acknowledged master. In clear, practical terms and with helpful photographs and line drawings, Lefty Kreh's Fly Fishing in Salt Water treats the techniques needed to catch all the major saltwater species--bonefish, tarpon, striped bass, bluefish, salmon, permit, snook, sharks, cobia, tuna, billfish, and more. The book shows how to fish from boats and how to wade the flats, and fully explains all the tackle needed and how to use it for specific jobs--the rods, the lines and leaders, and the flies (shown in full color). Lefty provides superb advice about how to make the long casts necessary for fishing the fly in salt water, how to "tease" sailfish and other large fish to within fly-casting range, how to chum, and how to tie the necessary knots for saltwater fishing. Chapter topics include Knots and Leaders, Flies, Tackle, Inshore Fly Fishing, and Boats.
Travel the globe with Lefty Kreh as he shares his most memorable fishing trips - his best cast ever for tarpon, twin Atlantic salmon on two successive casts that both weighted an amazing 37 pounds, Niugini black bass so strong you have to pull them from the brush with a boat, 'machine-gun' bass-bugging for machaca on the Rio Colorado, and, of course, the one that got away. Though not all these tales are about great catches, there is plenty of adventure as Kreh tell about the time he and his boatmates thwarted bandits in Costa Rica on a sailfish trip or the time he was chased from a prime bluegill pond by dogs. But whether about the best trips or the worst ones, reeling in a trophy fish or fly fishing for the bait, these stories show a man with a deep passion for fishing, and perhaps more important, the friendships and discovery that often accompany it.
Field & Stream Magazine called this essential book: 'The longtime bible of knots and knot tying.' It has now sold 150,000 copies. A second edition included new lines and leaders, new knots, and new nomenclature. Now, in this latest edition, we have added colour to the exceptionally clear line illustrations by Rod Walinchis, making this book a must for all fishermen - fresh and saltwater, fly, bait, and spinning - who want the clearest possible instructions on how to tie all the essential knots that hold.
