I was a fan of Nick Lyons' after reading "Bright Rivers" and this book just solidified that. Although not a "how to" book on fishing spring creeks, it does offer some instruction in the form of the author's experiences. Lyons' books are similar to Gierach... well written, funny, witty with a little self deprecating humor, and A LOT of fishing! Some of his experiences on this creek are nothing short of amazing. A definite classic.

For me, the premier flyfishing book. It's the only fishing story I'll read every year.
If they had a hardcover version, I'd buy it.

Lyons' writing on his Spring Creek experiences brings one to see what he is seeing and experiencing. It is an inspiring book and allows those who have not experienced that type of fly fishing to understand the challenges encountered fishing this type of water. Wonderful book.

Start to finish, a wonderful book. The author recounts his adventures (and in some cases, misadventures) from one month on a private trout stream. The epic "battle" with the snake alone is worth the price of the book. Any rabid fisherman should have this book in their library.
