Description:

This is the only guide that the serious trout fisherman needs in his library. The book’s goal is simple – to help each and every reader make the most of his time on the water. What to fish with; where, when and how. Dave Whitlock has taken out the guesswork, passing on the wisdom of his many years of trout fishing experience. Fly tying is broken down into simple steps, and Whitlock stays grounded in the practical importance and relevance of every fly in the book. These are flies that catch fish, from the man who does it best.
