The definitive collection of trout fishing adventure and advice, lore and legend Spanning almost a century of American angling, here is a book that you will read and reread, whatever your mood, for adventure, for humor, for the sheer joy of it. This veritable who’s who of trout fishing, drawn from the pages of Field &amp; Stream, describes the joy and pain, the camaraderie and solitude, the strategy, the patience, and the triumph of one of the great sporting challenges of the Great Outdoors. Emlyn Gill on smuggling the dry fly technique from England; Zane Grey on skill, luck, and the Rogue River’s fresh-run steelhead; G. M. L. LaBranche on the still-deadly “curved” cast technique; Nick Lyons on catching his first trout—and telling his first lie; Peter Kaminsky on finding brook-trout paradise in Labrador; and more than forty of fishing’s greatest men, moments, and memories. The best of Field &amp; Stream. The best the sport has to offer. A book for all those days you’d rather be fishing.

This is the story of wild (or streambred) brook, brown, and rainbow trout in the freestone, or rainfed, streams and rivers that make up most of our running-water trout fisheries. Here are the little-known facts about their evolution, their life histories, and especially their lifestyle - how water currents, stream contours, and temperature changes affect their behavior.Why will trout sometimes take freely when none are seen feeding? Why are they, at other times, virtually uncatchable? Why do you nearly always raise a good fish in one place and never in another that looks the same?The answers lie not so much with the fly or the fisherman, but in the nature of the fish and the world it inhabits. In The Ways of Trout, Len Wright launches a new, well-documented theory on where, when and why active trout-feeding periods start and stop. Here is "must" reading for all who delight in discovering nature's secrets as well as for dedicated fly-fishers. (51/2 X 81/4, 160 pages, illustrations, charts)
