“… too many self-professed experts have made too much money complicating this sport. In reality, fly fishing is a lot simpler than many people think. You don’t need to know the Latin names of every insect, nor do you need to make 70-foot casts, in order to enjoy yourself.

The true path to enjoying fly fishing lies in every angler’s spirit.”

“…the due diligence paid by both authors in breaking down the basics of gear, reading water and thankfully, etiquette, is solid stuff for anyone. At pocket-sized, it carries comfortably in a day pack for alpine or tidal missions beyond the world of wi-fi” – JG @ FFJ
