5.0 out of 5 stars Great starter guide for kids (an adults), July 3, 2007

By	Kirk Werner (Duvall, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this book for my son. He's 13 and certainly old enough to read and comprehend any book on the subject of fly-fishing, but this book was particularly interesting to him because it's written by a kid. Author Tyler Befus provides the aspiring young angler information that will help them with more than just the basics: It's written so that kids can understand it, but it's very well done and the information is quite complete. I enjoyed the book myself! It's inspiring to young anglers to know that fly-fishing isn't just for adults.

Got this book for my son by signing him up with a Youth Trout Unlimited membership, which also gifts him the TU Stream Explorers Magazine. What better way to foster future generations of cold water protectors? Fun book for ALL ages.

Tyler you did a great job on this book. It is easy to read and filled with many fun photographs and drawings. It is a super book to start kids on a fly fishing journey of their own. Highly recommended.
