“There is always something in these two books to relearn. The sheer density of information about the species—simply on the scientific level—their forage, and their habits would make the book a definitive treatise without any mention of how to stalk and trick one into biting a fly. The practical tips, the how-tos, the catalogues of tackle to bring, how to travel with it, and what to do with it once you get there is staggering. —Dave Churbuck, Founder of Reel-Time, The Internet Journal of Saltwater Fly Fishing
