Amazon.com Review

Rising in the Adirondacks and emptying into Lake Champlain, New York's Ausable River is a classic fly-fishing river. Learn more about its splendid and scenic waters from an angler's perspective, including where to wet a line and what flies to use, from this edition of the River Journal series. The book's large, color format, sumptuous photography, and lively, descriptive text bring the river and its angling possibilities to life. Like other volumes in this series from Frank Amato Publications, the river's history, wildlife, hydraulics, and fishing conditions are described in detail for the angler's benefit.

By A Customer

This review is from: Ausable River (River Journal Series) (Paperback)

I enjoy fishing this fine river every year and this book covered the water well without giving all the secrets away. This book will get any level of fly fisher on there way to learning and fishing the water the runs thru the high peaks. Read this book then go north in NY, be safe and enjoy this fine river. Please catch and release.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Color Pictures and Useful Flyfishing Information, January 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ausable River (River Journal Series) (Paperback)

This book contains many great looking color pictures of this river in upstate New York. Just by looking at those pictures is enough to motivate people to pay a visit to this river. It also has many useful information about fishing condition and fishing stores along this river. However, this book is strictly a "flyfishing" book, and the author exhibited strong bias against non-flyfishing fishermen; this can be a negative factor for non-flyfishing people. The other thing is that it doesn't show the access points along the river; this reduces the usefulness of this book.
