by Dave Hughes

Choosing the right line and rod for small stream fishingHow and where to find trout in pools, curves, trenches, riffles, runs, or behind bouldersNymphs and dry flies, streamers and soft-hackled wet fliesIn his newest book, Dave Hughes covers all aspects of fly fishing for trout on small streams. He describes how fishing is different on mountain, freestone, and meadow streams and how to develop skills for each. He covers the gear, including what to put in a small stream fly box. Hughes' advice on casting technique is especially useful because trees and brush often require different kinds of casts for small streams.

Plenty of Ideas

I found information in this book that I never expected to see in writing. Many of my lifelong tricks and hard earned knowledge are, laid bare for the observant reader. Good stuff. Good ideas.
