From the Back Cover
The Yellowstone River in Yellowstone National Park in known widely for two things: the spectacular Yellowstone Falls and a few miles of world-class dry-fly fishing for native cutthroat trout. But for all its reputation as easy pickings for big fish, it can be devilishly difficult depending on the season and fishing conditions. Those big, burly cutthroats have seen it all, and at times they can seem downright jaded - unless you know how to fish for them. And West Yellowstone guide and fly shop owner Bob Jacklin and world-renowned angler Gary LaFontaine both know how.
Calling on thirty-two years of experience, Jacklin knows the Yellowstone's fish, its insects, its flies, and its moods, and he sets it all down in this concise, readable guide. LaFontaine adds what he's learned in twenty-plus years fishing the Yellowstone and shares the fly patterns he finds most effective. Together they lead you through the river's seasons, its hatches, and its special reaches and runs.
This book is the next best thing to having Bob and Gary at your side when you fish the Yellowstone in the Park. Included are a hatch chart, a list of popular flies, and more than twenty recipes for the most effective fly patterns that catch fish on the Yellowstone River.

This review is from: Fly Fishing the Yellowstone in the Park (Paperback)
Bob Jacklin is a master and his book excellent. It provides so much information in such a slim volume that all guides should be written like this one. The pertinent information provided matches my experiences on the Yellowstone River so I trust the info provided I am unfamiliar with is also spot on. This book is the equivalent of several days on the river with the master guide. Read this book, enjoy fishing the Yellowstone and visit Bob's shop in West Yellowstone. It is my favorite shop because of the knowledge shared and the great selection of appropriate gear (not necessarily top dollar gear) to enjoy this sport. Order your copy now.
