5.0 out of 5 stars Flyfisher's Guide to Wyoming, July 3, 2000
This review is from: Flyfisher's Guide to Wyoming (Flyfisher's Guides) (Paperback)
Wow. If you are looking for the tell all book for flyfishing Wyoming....you found it. To say that this book is comprehensive does not do it true justice. It covers every single stretch of water worth throwing a line into. In addition, it gives seasonal water informaiton including flows, hatches, and species. If you live in the west, or if you dream of fishing there, this book is a MUST OWN. I think to fish Wyoming without reading it would be a waste of your time.

This is not only the best fly fishing guide to Wyoming. Retallic has written one of the best fly fishing guides ever. Of particular excellence is his description of Yellowstone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book On Wyoming Fishing, March 6, 2006
This review is from: Flyfisher's Guide to Wyoming (Flyfisher's Guides) (Paperback)

The keys to any successful (self-guided) fishing trip are research and common sense. Ken's book has lots of information locations of lakes and streams...and some information on types of fish, sizes of fish, and overall rating of the fishery. This book is best used with the Wyoming DeLorme Atlas and Gazetteer, which shows specific streams, lakes, highways, roads (and campgrounds). Overall, I really enjoyed the book and can not wait until this summer to check out some of his recommended locations.

Other good books on Wyoming Fly Fishing include: Wyoming Blue-Ribbon Fly Fishing Guide, by Greg Thomas...The most complete guide to Wyoming fishing by John Baughman...and Kip Carey's (updated) Wyoming Fishing Guide. Each of these books compliments the other (and on occassion, contradicts the other). THe truth always comes with you actually going out there to fish the stream or lake in question, hoping that hatches, weather and waterflow cooperate.

Whenever planning a trip, DO RESEARCH FIRST. Research comes in several forms, the most effective being advice from a trusted friend (who's been there), conversation with fly shop owners and guides from the area you will be (they will usually only provide snippets), and lots of reading. Since becoming a "serious researcher" my trips to the Rockies have been VERY productive and more memorable.
