Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The West Branch of the Delaware River has often been described as "the premier tailwater fishery in the Northeast." Stable cold wter has established a rich ecosystem with abundant and diversified insect life creating a trout fisherman's heaven. The Delaware River Journal is a fascinating book filled with local stories points of interest, and colorful characters. Its full-color photographs on thick glossy paper make it as attractive as it is useful.

Complete with a detailed river map, color fly plates, and a suggestion list of flies and how to fish them with greater success, Delaware River Journal is an excellent "get-to-know-the-water" book on this famous fishing area in New York.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Guide To A Historic River, April 22, 2004
By ron P. swegman (Philadelphia, PA, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A river with a storied history deserves to have its story told, and George L. Spector does a good job within the pages of Delaware River, part of the River Journal series published by Frank Amato Publications. Spector begins with the river's history, then reveals a wealth of facts about the many fishing opportunities this watershed offers both in New York and Pennsylvania. The Delaware was once a smallmouth bass and walleye fishery, but the constructions of dams in the 1960s turned the river into a premiere coldwater wild trout fishery that is also one of the few rivers on the east coast to be navigated by drift boats, which are primarily western river water craft. Delaware River is chock full of vivid color photos, and Spector adds useful information about the river's shad fishery and insect hatches, too, making this a thorough introduction to this excellent, historic, fly fishing destination.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, February 13, 2002
By A Customer
As one who fishes the Delaware, I was hugely disappointed by this "book." There is no new insight, the text is lame and rife with grammatical errors and the photos are horrible. The whole first section is a quote from Schweibert's "Trout." Pretty lazy. I can't believe they charge [$$$] for this. Save your money for flies.
