Rating: Summary: If you like fly fishing, you won't be able to put this down. Review: As an evolving fly fisherman, I found myself lacking some concepts necessary in advancing my ability to consistently catch fish. Mr. Kreh provided the insight, in simple and effective terms, to "fill the gaps" in my skills and greatly enhance my capabilities both on the water and at the vise.I have read a number of books on fly fishing tactics and strategies over the last several years and can say assuredly that this one was worth its weight in gold.
Rating: Summary: If you like fly fishing, you won't be able to put this down. Review: I enjoyed this so much I bought his original fly casting and salt water fly fishing books as well. I have not been disappointed by any of Lefty's books. He is a true sportsman and has an knack for keeping you glued to his books. If you want something to just browse through, this won't do. You will end up keeping this book with you until you are done. At the breakfast table, during lunches at work, and reading in bed. You may even turn off that tired old television and read this book through in a few nights! An eye opener for beginning, intermediate, and advanced fly fishers. I hope he writes more books. Thank you Lefty.
Rating: Summary: Excellent guide for salt and fresh water fly fishing Review: Lefty covers much more than mere basics. This fine work includes everything from modifying leaders to spotting bonefish to unusual fly casting techniques for difficult conditions. The simple advice (a welcome change from the majority of the literature) regarding modifying commercial leaders to quickly change tippets and ensure a slack presentation is worth the price of the book alone. My copy of this fine book is so dog-eared that I'll have to buy another soon. An excellent reference work for freshwater and saltwater flyfishing and serious fly fishers.
Rating: Summary: A great book for all levels of fly fishermen Review: There is no matter how experienced fly fisherman you are, you'll allways need to learn something more every time to be successfull in this art, and there is no better way than learn from a master's knowledge. Lefty Kreh is the Great Guru for all of us, the rest of fly fishermen. You can't find any person with his experience and generosity to tell his secrets. His success as a fly fishing writer depends on it, I'm sure of that. This book covers all main subjects with general conceptions to do it right, and lots of practical tips for any topic. My recommendation to all fly fishermen: Read Lefty Kreh, especially this book.
Rating: Summary: Sick of 30 page picture books claiming to teach flyfishing? Review: This is an excellent book for the beginner who's decided to take the next step. While I have fished for two years now, I have never taken the time to perfect my technique. Kreh's book propelled me forward. Now I have confidence in my abilities. Looking for more than the basics? Try this book!
