3.0 out of 5 stars Overpriced, January 18, 2008

By	Larry D. Johnson "BigLar" (California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The book was good if you are a fly fisherman and want that specific information. The author is not a professional writer by any means but is humorous. The book should sell 50% less.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fly Fishing Eastern Sierra Streams, February 22, 2007

By	Sky Pilot "Jim" (Pomona, CA USA) - See all my reviews

The focus of this book is mostly small streams in the Eastern Sierra so if your goals are catching lunkers this may not be your book. If catching a lot of small trout is good for you then this book is for you. The author details many locations and provides some very useful tips such as how to avoid altitude sickness which may be an issue you did not think about before going up there. The tips about gear sound good to me but I have yet to make the trip so I will know more later.
