Summary: Hooked on Steelhead
Review: I bought this book to improve my luck on the St. Joe River. I loved it , cover to cover. Flies for the fish, not for display or to store in another flybox. This is a guide to practical, easily tied fish getters and how to present them. I felt included as I read about the rivers I have fished here in the midwest. The author gives a clear, common sense explanation covering tackle from rods to tippets. I enjoyed his stories which put me back on streams I had fished long ago. I'm hooked!

Summary: The whole truth about Midwest fly fishing for steelhead
Review: This book reveals the whole truth about how Midwest fly anglers have used their innovation to create techniques to catch salmon and steelhead as they migrate out of the Great Lakes into the rivers.Instead of protecting fly fishing traditional mystique it shows how Midwest fly anglers really fish and relays in detail the techniques that catch 95% of these fish. This book includes lots of "firsts" in the fly fishing literature including; migratory fish attitudes (happy, feeding & stale), summer spawning steelhead, 12 month migration cycle of steelhead, "natural" Pi-nook salmon hybrids, Great Lakes Atlantic salmon fly fishing, drift-fly-fishing, 12 simple (and simply seductive) salmon and steelhead flies, and a lot more. . .

Summary: Not what I wanted
Review: This seemed like a mediocre reference to me. I returned it a day after recieving it in the mail. Perhaps it is more appropriate for the more eastern Great Lakes. Minnesota streams were mentioned on only two pages.
