  • More than a hobby
Good introduction to fly fishing. It made me realize that fly fishing would take a lot more effort than I am willing to spend in my retirement. So thank you Amazon!

A challenge for grandfather’s trying to help the boys fish. Somewhat surprising.

  • Great Reference & Learnig Resource
If your one who's just starting out trying to learn fly fishing, this is one book you probably ought to skim through. It's extremely elementary on some pages, but just skim those. For the money, you'll definitely learn some things that will likely be worthwhile.
