Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover
This fine little guidebook to the best fishing in Yellowstone Park discusses aquatic and terrestrial insect emergences and activity periods, fly patterns to imitate these insects, and effective fishing techniques. Included are specific locations, access points and trailheads, distances, and terrain descriptions. The handy icons located at the beginning of each of the more than two hundred waters discussed provide helpful, at-a-glance information about fish type, ease of access, and wildlife to watch for. This book is required reading for any fly fisher planning a trip to Yellowstone Park - an area that holds more wild trout water for its size than anywhere else in the world. (6 X 9, 176 pages, b&w photos, maps, illustrations, charts, icons)

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the Pack, June 27, 1998
There are a handful of guidebooks to Yellowstone waters, but this one has become my favorite. It is very well organized, and concise.
There is at least a paragraph dedicated to every named piece of water in the park (and up to 6 pages for more important rivers). Accompanying the text are easily scannable icons representing the fish species in the water, type of access (car or hike), bear warnings, etc.
Although I never trust hatch charts, the ones in this book are as good as you can expect. And who today could be better at suggesting flies for Yellowstone waters than Craig Mathews, the inventor of several of the most productive patterns used in the park today? I've seen Craig in the Park fishing several times, this man knows what he's doing.
My only improvement would be for more detailed maps, but you should really have topos for any area you're going to hike into anyway.
If you're headed to Yellowstone to fish for the first time, study this book & you'll improve your odds of having a great time. If you've fished the Park many times before and want ideas for new places to try, I can't think of a better way to find them than with this book and a good map.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE book for fly-fishing Yellowstone....PERIOD!, June 4, 1999
By Scott Billings (Hondo, TX USA) - See all my reviews
Three years ago I bought this book from Craig Matthews at his store and everytime I go to Yellowstone I STILL use it. Of all the fly fishing books I have about where to fish this one is the best by far.

Craig tells in DETAIL about no only WHERE the fish are, but what to use at that time of year and what fish are in the water.

If you are planning on fishing in Yellowstone..then this is your book!

5.0 out of 5 stars I call the book the bible for yellowstone., November 17, 2003
By Nathan J Conrad (Fort Dodge, IA United States) - See all my reviews
This book is easy to use and extreamly useful. It splits the park up into four regions, tells you where (or not to) fish, and where to start looking in your flybox. I have used it the last 3 or 4 years and will use it as long as I vacation in Yellowstone. I have looked at several books on fishing in Yellowstone and this is by far the best that I have found.
