I am a novice fisherperson, yet found this book to be of extreme value in learning about flyfishing on the Big Horn. George Kelly is almost poetic in his descriptions of the river. He is my neighbor and I am proud to know him. His love for his life on this river shines through and those I know, who have read this, have happily exclaimed that this is a wonderful book!

One of the things that will most strike you about this book is that it is a realistic view and description of the river, from a fishers point of view. He takes it to the next level by the values of the prose that accompany each section and each photo. If you want to fish the river, then buy it and enjoy the anticipation. If you have fished the river, then get the book and relive your trip.

George is an acquaintance of several years, I have fished the bighorn with him and his quides and found this book to be better than any pictures I took over the years. This is a unique look at one of the premier trout rivers in the world. For any fisherman (or fisherwoman) this book is a look at one of the experiences of a lifetime. For anyone fortunate enough to have fished the bighorn this book would bring back a flood of memories.
