LIKE TO FISH? THIS IS GREAT!,

This review is from: Guide to Maryland Trout Fishing: The Catch and Release Streams (Paperback)
This book covers all those fishing spots within a day trip of Washington, DC. A great read for all those places they cover which you would never know about otherwise. My 12 year old son and I found several great spots from this detailed read!

This review is from: Guide to Maryland Trout Fishing: The Catch and Release Streams (Paperback)
This is an important piece of literature for the trout fisherman of Maryland. This is a high quality guide that every trout fisherman in Md can learn from. The authors cover most all of the catch and release streams in the Free State. The book is very specific in that they only cover the C&R streams. There are other great streams in Md that are not C&R per the title and were left out. They cover directions, techniques, hatch info and more for each piece of water.
One gripe is the authors are a little optimistic about some of the streams. A lot of these streams especially in non-western Md are about 70% hatchery stocked, so when those fish are depleted the fishing is less than ideal. There are still some good streams covered like Gunpowder and Hunting Creek that hold a good bit of wild browns. However, even these streams don't have a good concentration of wild Brook or Rainbows. Nothing is worse for a fisherman to hit the streams at the wrong time and not find fish as a lot of these streams are stocked in the Spring and the hold-over rate for Brook and Rainbows is usually less than 9 months in the water. They neglected to mention that here. Also, some of the pictures don't do the stream, creek, or river justice. [Note this review is for the fully revised 2nd ed.] However, I recommend this to every trout fisherman in Md.

Unbelievable find,

This review is from: Guide to Maryland Trout Fishing: The Catch and Release Streams (Paperback)
I was picking up a few items to tie some flies this past weekend and while waiting at the counter I saw this book and started browsing through. I couldn't believe it. This book is incredible in its detail of every catch and release stream in Maryland. It includes maps with parking locations and access sites. It guides you as to the type of fly to use and what has worked and when for them.
My only gripe has to be in the mapping portion. Even though they have close up details, I found myself having to get out another map to find my way to where their maps start. An example, I was looking for where routes 97 and 32 cross and was looking in the opposite direction from where the stream that was described was located. Being relatively new to Maryland and Flyfishing this is par for the course and expected. That is a minor complaint and I am pleasantly surprised to have found this book and the waterways that I will soon visit thanks to these gentlemen. Thanks
