Notes: "A clearly written and comprehensive book [which pays attention] to rods and equipment, to fishing methods and how to 'read' the water, to casting techniques, to tying high performance flies and to presentation. The book ends with a consideration of coaching and training, a discussion of the places, people and fishing experiences that have shaped the author's development as a fly fisherman, and a brief analysis of how the sport is likely to develop in the future".
