Excellent, well done,
By Flyfisher from MI (Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Trout Hunter: The Way of an Angler (Hardcover)
This book is overdue but well worth the wait. The writing is excellent as are the color photos. For a flyfisherman who wants to add to his/her enjoyment, this book provides good information and flies. Yes, the book's focus is localized but the thoughts and flies are universal. A book to be enjoyed and re-visited.

This review is from: Trout Hunter: The Way of an Angler (Hardcover)
Its nice to see Rene's excellent articles from the fly fishing jls in the US and Japan appear in hardcover. The collection is definately worth having for the angler/book collector. I am enjoying reading these artcles though the fly designs and patterns are no surpises - standard Harrop stuff. Well written and interesting, a must for the Hnery's Fork Angler and serious Spring Creek person. Buy it with Mike Lawson's spring Creek book, both are well done. Minor Cons: Could have used a detailed bibliography, more relevant pictures.

A great book for any level of fly fisherman. The stories and images will make you want to hit the river now!!! If you a tier, it will become a reference book for future patterns.
