"No one I know understands the intricacies of successful fly fishing along the North American coast better."--Lefty Kreh
From the Back Cover
In this classic book, expert Lou Tabory provides professional advice on how to fly fish for striped bass, bluefish, weakfish, and other cold-water marine species. Tabory clearly instructs on how to “read” rips, bars, beaches, flats, jetties, reefs, tidal estuaries, and all other important fishing areas. He outlines what tackle fly fishermen will need, which flies are most effective (and when and how), and how to hook and play these great northern gamefish. There are also special sections on tides, night fishing, the use of a stripping basket, drags, and drag systems—all that a beginning or expert marine fly fisherman will need for this new and exciting kind of fishing.

Should be required reading for fly fishing the suds!,
This review is from: Inshore Fly Fishing (Hardcover)
Lou Tabory spells out every step and stage of how to fly fish in the salt for striped bass in this book! His writing is easily understandable and intelligent. He explains how to use the water to bring your flies to the fish, how to determine where the fish should be in many different types of water, which flies to choose in certain conditions and why, and he does all this is a manner that even a non-fly fisherman can understand! He also introduces you to his flies, all are simple, all are well thought out and very effective! I've been fly fishing the suds for 10 years now and have come to reply on more than a few of Mr. Tabory's patterns, they are simply ingenious! Like I said, should be required reading!

This might become a true classic,
By daveinbpt@aol.com David Mech (Bridgeport CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Inshore Fly Fishing (Hardcover)
Being from Fairfield County, CT, the same as Lou Tabory, it seemed natural for me to buy his book, being that he learned most of his techniques here on Long Island Sound. What a great decision! Lou's book is a true masterpiece! Very thourough instruction, and plenty of tips. Whether you are an experienced flyrodder or a beginner, you'll gain vast amounts of knowledge from this great book! I know that it's helped me catch more stripers!
