Summary: Good prep for trip
Review: A friend had loaned me her copy of this book - and I had to have it. Combines the best of a fly fishing guide book (including hottest patterns for certain water), as well as recommendations for places to stay, and for fly shops. Thanks to my husband for buying it for me! That Amazon Wish List thing works!

Summary: Good planning book
Review: I bought this book to begin planning a trip to Colorado for a week of fly fishing. This book is a good place to start. It gives a good run down of pretty much all the rivers, creeks and lakes in the state, what to expect there, what sort of fish are there, fishing expectations and hatches for different times of the season, successful flies and information on getting there - such as the road may be muddy and impassible in wet seasons. It even tells you what sort of goods and services are available in near by towns. Anyone fishing in Colorado would benefit from the book but I particularly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Colorado and are yet unfamiliar with fishing there.

Summary: Excellent, comprehensive review of Colorado fly fishing
Review: I met Marty at a fishing show in Denver this winter. He was much too modest about this book. I bought it at Pat Dorsey and Joel Hubscher's recommendation - it is first-rate, thanks for the referral.

Summary: A Must Have for Fly Fishing in Colorado
Review: Marty Bartholomew has not only proven himself as pro for Ross Reels and Scott Rods, an elite fly tyer, and one of the classiest individuals in the fly fishing industry, but he has now proven that he can write the most informative book available on fly fishing in Colorado. As a former fly fishing instructor, I often referred to this book as "The Bible on Fly Fishing in Colorado." Bartholomew attacks every aspect of the waters covered in this book from where to fish it, what to use, how to get there, when hatches are taking place, and even where to park. The Flyfisher's Guide to Colorado essentially takes the reader on a guided trip to the water he or she desires. This book is certainly a must have.

Summary: Book Reviews
Review: The following reviews just came in from the biggest newspapers in Colorado. There's what they had to say: "...a new book that ranks, quite simply, as the most important manuscript ever compiled on Colorado fishing. Never before has so much useful lore been presented under a single title. If Bartholomew tried to pack in another single morsel, it might pop through the book." Denver Post
"Veteran Colorado flyfishers and newcomers alike willbe delighted with a new 512 page book that explores the state's rich angling opportunities more comprehensively than any reference before it." Rocky Mountain News

Summary: Complete Colorado
Review: This book "The Fly Fisher's Guide To Colorado", is a book that stands alone in a sea of fly fishing books. A well written book indeed as author Marty Bartholomew, takes you on adventures throughout the state of Colorado. Every detail is in the book as well from hatch charts to hospital locations it is all in here. This is the most complete book I own, period. I feel this is the best choice if you are in the Colorado region, to get all the facts. There are many different versions, about various states, so many others won't miss out on these great books. I as well, met Marty at the Denver expo, a true class act!
