Great writing. Best fishing guide book I've ever read.

[Timothy Kidder · Rating 5 out of 5]

After having the privilege of spending some time in Yellowstone these past couple of years I thought owning a guide book to help find some more secluded (read secret) spots was probably a good idea. So I picked up this book while looking around the Fishing Bridge General Store. Instantly, I was drawn in to the format and wonderful stories about each spot. Tales of thirty inch trout, the lake trout epidemic, some really nice photography and even Bigfoot make this a great read with some invaluable information for the visiting angler. There also came a hefty dose of Bear awareness, which may or may not keep me from exploring some of the more backcountry destinations. Either way, I really enjoyed this book and would gladly recommend it to anyone interested in getting to know Yellowstone's fishing opportunities.

"And if you can't appreciate a 12-inch wild trout in a place like this, you need to adjust your perspective on this sport."
