Fly Fishing

Renowned news anchor Tom Brokaw once said, "If fishing is like religion, then fly fishing is high church." Fly fishing worshippers seeking a new "bible" will benefit greatly from the wealth of information found in "Fly Fishing: the Lifetime Sport, a comprehensive yet highly readable reference tool for fly fishermen of any skill level. With 8 1/2" x 11" full glossy pages, this book is well organized and visually appealing, with color photographs and illustrations on virtually every page.

Witty, shrewd, and, as always, a joy to read, John Gierach, "America's best fishing writer" (Houston Chronicle) and favorite streamside philosopher, extols the frequent joys and occasional tribulations of the fly-fishing life.

Here fishing guide and fly designer Henry Cowen shares decades of hard-earned knowledge of stripers for the first time. Learn about the species, its food, and where and how to find them, so you can land far more and bigger stripers.
