The Dry Fly: New Angles

LaFontaine, Gary

Trout Flies presents the most carefully tested series of proven fish-takers available to fly fishermen. These are the flies of legend (62 of them) - nationally acclaimed patterns, such as the Emergent Sparkle Pupa, and completely new innovations, such as the Twist Nymph, the hot stillwater imitation - but this isn't another recipe book. It drips with fine observations on the habitat, the fish, and the techniques. This work is a top-to-bottom analysis of day-to-day situations in all types of trout water. It gives anglers the best of modern flies - and all the information they need to fool fish consistently with these exciting patterns. (8 1/2 x 10 3/4, 280 pages, color photos, b&amp;w photos, illustrations)

Montana Fly Fishing Guide: West of the Continental Divide

Holt,John

"True Love and the Woolly Bugger is a thoroughly amusing, manic, and perversely informative book about fishing in several of its most mutant forms." -Tom McGuane "Dave Ames's book . . . is good-natured fun, filled with insight, a passion for what honest fly fishing really is. He has a sharp eye for quirky nuance that makes simple language dance a wild step." -John Holt, author of Knee Deep in Montana's Trout Streams "True Love and the Woolly Bugger is adventurous and funny, and yet also poignant. In short, it's not just a fishing book, but very much like life itself, and well worth reading, even by folks who have never made a cast." -John Barsness, editor of Gray's Sporting Journal and Montana Time When is "sex, death, and fly fishing" not about the life cycle of an insect? When you read True Love and the Woolly Bugger, which views fly fishing and life through a different lens. In these tales trout, tarpon, and bonefish are skillfully interwoven with all the things-funny, happy, and sad-that happen to Dave Ames's completely unforgettable characters: a laid-back Bahamian fishing guide who stalks "gourmet" food, especially for his American clients; a tattooed, motorcycle-riding, fly-fishing beauty who teaches the hero a thing or two; his fishing buddies . . . a perverse and driven lot who continually push the envelope of sanity and good judgment. "True Love" takes you to the Bob Marshall Wilderness to fish for grayling and trout, and to learn about enduring love. "The Woolly Bugger" is an odyssey through three decades of fishing and sometimes hard living, from the author's childhood bait fishing to his truly unusual conversion to flies and catch-and-release. True Love and the Woolly Bugger will captivate you with remarkable stories, remarkably told, and leave you asking for more.

Genre Fiction

The Dry Fly and Fast Water was written to fill a need created by the coming of the brown trout to America. The British flies and methods that followed it over here proved inapplicable. Therefore, it remained for fishing expert George La Branche to promulgate a new, distinctly American school of dry-fly angling. The proof of its validity is that today it is still widely practiced here. This remains one of the great classics of American fishing literature, covering everything from wonderfuldescriptions of fish behavior to details of the insects they feed on and the artificial flies that imitate those foods.

This is the definitive book on how to fish mountain lakes by one of America's best fly fishermen. This book is about back packing and still water fishing. It is also about having fun. Many of the tips are at variance with conventional wisdom. Well worth reading.
