reading water. Scores of color photos along with many line drawings,
graphs and other illustrations. If you like to fish for steelhead and
salmon you will find the information this book to be invaluable -
regardless of how you fish (with fly, bait, plug, spinner, jig or
bobber). This is a very revealing, post-graduate fishing technique book
sure to please!

“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten” - Benjamin Franklin
"Be sure in casting, that your fly fall first into the water, for if the line fall first, it scares or frightens the fish..." -
Col. Robert Venables 1662
As age slows my pace, I will become more like the heron.
The hooks are sharp.
The coffee's hot.
The fish are slippery when wet.
