5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate for Backcountry Pa. Fisherman, May 23, 2000

By 

David L Crowl (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Trout Streams of Pennsylvania: An Angler's Guide, Third Edition (Paperback)

I've looked at all the books out there about fly fishing in Pennsylvania. Nothing comes close as a comprehensive guide to Pa. streams. As I travel thru Pa. I've often seen streams I could only wonder what kind of fishing was there. Now I can look up these streams and plan a fishing trip based on Landis' great work. This guy knows what he's talking about. He's right on in every instance. For guys who sit in front of the fireplace all winter with topo maps and books, this book is a must ! Also for the guy who doesn't like crowds and doesn't mind a hike, Landis has some great getaways !

5.0 out of 5 stars How does he know those secret spots?, March 8, 1999

This review is from: Trout Streams of Pennsylvania: An Angler's Guide (Paperback)

I met Dwight at Shippenburg University in 1994. He is a very personal fellow and a sporting gentleman. I got his book and his signature at his book signing at SHIP. This is a MUST have book for fishing the streams of PA. I own the first edition and have seen the second. Whenever I go on trips the book is right along my side. (I guess I should get another one since mine is signed and it's getting so beat up). Learn hatches, and also some bait techniques that are taylored to each stream. The maps are very handy and get you to the stream of your choice. Also,there are pictures, of which some anglers may consider "secret-spots". How does Mr. Landis have this much time to fish!?

Landis has done some very good research on the streams of PA. If you love to fish new locations and don't know alot about areas you want to fish, Landis gives you just the right amount of information for a good starting point. I use his book constantly, it is also enjoyable to read.
