5.0 out of 5 stars Great informational guidebook to fishing in the Mid-South!!, January 26, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Home Waters: Guide to Fishing Northern Arkansas, Western Tennessee, and Southern Missouri (Spiral-bound)

This book is a very helpful guide to the beginning or avid fly fisher. It gives information on fly-tying, the best places to fish and stay, conditions to look for, equipment, etc. One of the best features I found was the river maps in the back and access points to them. Very well organized.

2.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat useful guide to Ozark fly fishing, October 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Home Waters: Guide to Fishing Northern Arkansas, Western Tennessee, and Southern Missouri (Spiral-bound)

Some of the information in this book is excellent, however much of it is incomplete or lacking. It is a compilation of writings of various authors, and it appears the editors couldn't find "volunteers" for the chapters on some of the best waters. The chapters on the North Fork of the White and Little Red Rivers are good, however others (such as the White River) are severly lacking. The format varies for each chapter, so river milage, accesses, fly recommendations and landmarks may be available for one river, but not for another.

Directions are given to some of the locations, however they invariably assume the traveler is approaching from a direction different from where I come from.

All-in-all, not a bad reference material for an area that has little written about it.

By A Customer

This review is from: Home Waters: Guide to Fishing Northern Arkansas, Western Tennessee, and Southern Missouri (Spiral-bound)

This is the book to get if you are a seasoned Arkansas fly fisherman or a first timer. The book contains maps, recommendations and a list of accommodations available in the area of each of the rivers covered. The is also information on trout rivers in Missourri and Tennessee.
