The trout that inhabit the Upper Delaware River are large, wild, and highly selective, with fighting skills so legendary that many well-traveled anglers consider them to be among the most athletic in the world. Fly-Fishing Guide to the Upper Delaware River provides detailed information about the 3 tailwater branches that constitute this vast and complex river system--the West Branch, the East Branch, and the Main Stem--with maps to exact fishing locations. Included are descriptions of public-access areas, directions for reaching them, and their corresponding GPS coordinates. This comprehensive guide analyzes the trout species that live in the Upper Delaware and offers important seasonal hatch information, fishing techniques, and recipes of Upper Delaware trout-tested patterns so that your fly box will be up to the challenge of the river s celebrated fish.

I turn to this book every month in the spring, summer and fall. The Upper Delaware is 138 miles from the front stoop of my apartment in Brooklyn. Weamer s book makes it seem much closer. --Forbes.com

Enjoyed learning even more than my guides had shared with me about Fly Fishing in the Upper Delaware River. Information is clearly presented and the maps are especially helpful.
If you plan to go fishing in this area...pick up a copy of Paul Weamer's book and read it before you hit the water.

I plan to take a float trip on the west branch of the upper Delaware this summer. This book gives a lot of specific info on the river, the access points, the fishing spots and the fish. Very infomative and comprehensive.
