The Complete Book of Fly Fishing

Amazon.com Review

In the wise words of Dame Juliana Berners, spoken five centuries ago yet just as immediate now, “there is more to fishing than catching fish.” So begins The Complete Book of Fly Fishing, a combination primer-encyclopedia that is indeed a fairly complete book–and without sacrificing depth for breadth. Early chapters include the basics, such as history, equipment, and technique. McNally explains the differences between dry flies, nymphs, and wet flies, and how to approach these very different forms of fly-fishing. Insect hatches, stream tactics, and more advanced strategies are also detailed with illustrations and color photographs. Final chapters cover less traditional quarry like bass, pike, and saltwater species.
