Summary: The Standard Reference For PA Fly Fishers
Review: Dwight Landis has authored and photographed what should be considered the standard reference work for fly fishers in Pennsylvania. He has condensed this immense commonwealth of trout fisheries into a fact-filled and fun read that can give guidance to old and new anglers alike. More than a broad collection of scouting reports, this book lets the reader look through the eyes of a single wise angler who shares hard fact with personal experience. The result is better trout fishing for us all.

Summary: Great Books
Review: I have owned this book since 1998 and use it everytime I go fishing. It has a wealth of information on almost every trout stream in Pennsylvania, and it is well orgaqnized and the specific streams are easy to find. I can't wait to get the third edition to see what Landis has added to the book. This is a must have for any seroius fisherman.

Summary: How does he know those secret spots?
Review: I met Dwight at Shippenburg University in 1994. He is a very personal fellow and a sporting gentleman. I got his book and his signature at his book signing at SHIP. This is a MUST have book for fishing the streams of PA. I own the first edition and have seen the second. Whenever I go on trips the book is right along my side. (I guess I should get another one since mine is signed and it's getting so beat up). Learn hatches, and also some bait techniques that are taylored to each stream. The maps are very handy and get you to the stream of your choice. Also,there are pictures, of which some anglers may consider "secret-spots". How does Mr. Landis have this much time to fish!?

Summary: The Ultimate for Backcountry Pa. Fisherman
Review: I've looked at all the books out there about fly fishing in Pennsylvania. Nothing comes close as a comprehensive guide to Pa. streams. As I travel thru Pa. I've often seen streams I could only wonder what kind of fishing was there. Now I can look up these streams and plan a fishing trip based on Landis' great work. This guy knows what he's talking about. He's right on in every instance. For guys who sit in front of the fireplace all winter with topo maps and books, this book is a must ! Also for the guy who doesn't like crowds and doesn't mind a hike, Landis has some great getaways !

Summary: Excellent maps and hatch info on some of PA's best streams s
Review: Landis has done some very good research on the streams of PA. If you love to fish new locations and don't know alot about areas you want to fish, Landis gives you just the right amount of information for a good starting point. I use his book constantly, it is also enjoyable to read.

Summary: Good, but need more hatch info!!
Review: Ok, but I'd like to see more hatch information. A useful guide book, but I found I needed to buy Charlie Meck's book for hatch information. Landis is a good writer, but again it's not quite a complete book.
