# "For most of us, the four or five season veterans, JOE HUMPHREYS'S TROUT TACTICS value is as great for what it "un-learns" about streams, about fish, about the underwater fly, as for the original ideas on water temperature and migration. For the 'expert' - for those few among us who are quite satisfied that they know all they need know about fishing the dry fly, about mid-season fishing - for you this book is essential." A well-illustrated, systematic approach to trout flyfishing, based on 80,000 hours of trout stream experience. Chapters include: Finding trout - a matter of degrees; Nymph fishing - getting to the bottom; Wet flies - a new look at old techniques; Streamers - matching minnows; Dry flies - seeing is believing; Brush fishing - the dry fly and small streams; Night fishing - the big ones come out at night; Epilog - observation.
