4.0 out of 5 stars Saltwater flyfishing on the left coast, June 24, 2000

This review is from: Fly Fishing Afoot in the Surf Zone (Paperback)

Life size saltwater flies in color on the inside covers. If you don't saltwater flyfish before reading this book you probably will after reading it, if just to have some of these flies in your tackle box. Hanley keeps it simple throughout-pictures abound. A good book to get you started: tackle suggestions; places to fish, and how to fish them; how to read tide tables. Now go out and fish the surf zone.

It's about time some one wrote a book on the west coast surf fly fishing. Covers areas from the Canadian to the Mexican boarders. Well written and laid out. All the information one needs to fly fish in the surf. Good resource on flies, equiptment and the quarry. It's also fun to read. I highly reccomned it.

This book is helpful for someone who is just getting started in surf fishing as well as someone like myself who has done a bit of surf fishing in my days on the water. Very few angling books can be considered the complete compendium but each one has a few nuggets which are good to know and try for the first time.

My interest in fishing the surf zone continues to grow and I'll be looking for more books like this one to add to my collection.
