On the Trout Stream with Joe Humphreys

by Joe Humphreys, Joseph B. Humphreys, Profusely illustrated (Illustrator)

Joe talks directly to you, the reader, in On the Trout Stream, as if you were wading along beside him for a one-on-one lesson. You are in the current at his side as he points out ways to read water, shows you what tippet-fly combo he's going to use for a particular stream situation, discusses casting, makes his approach and, with you at his side, lands fish. This book gives you hard information and instruction in an original, highly visual presentation on how Joe Humphreys actually fishes. Unprecedented in approach, full of new tips as well as photo sequence explanations of techniques never before fully explained anywhere, this reading--and looking--experience will prove indispensable to anyone who has already grasped the basics of fly fishing, and is surely destined to take its place among the innovative teaching-texts in any sport.
