Side-Drifting For Steelhead is a one-of-a-kind fishing guide that informs the reader of a controversial form of fishing for steelhead, the best way to catch a steelhead in the steelhead rivers running throughout the Pacific Northwest, California, British Columbia, Alaska, Idaho, and the Great Lakes. J.D. Richey (a renowned side-drifting fisherman and guide) and co-author Fred Contaoi tactfully work in unison to produce a most descriptive, "user friendly" instructional guide to all aspects of the side-drifting method for steelhead. Strongly recommended for steelhead anglers from the most experienced to the novice beginner, Side-Drifting For Steelhead is an instructional guide book for personal and community library fishing reference collections.

Wanted a clear discussion about the various techniques used in drift boat fishing on streams in the area.
This book does an excellant job. Not long winded - just to the point.
Valuable information for fishing a drift boat or pontoon boat on a stream.

Since Dan wrote this book, side drifting has become a very common way to catch steelies here in the pacific northwest.
This book certainly contributed to that. Instructions are straightforward and clear. A worthwhile read.

I read a lot of different authors on techniques and how to books and always like a new approach and this book had some very good points and explainations. I like having this book in my library
