Great Lakes Steelhead fishing became
popular, but Nagy has always been the driver!

of maps, directions, and effective flies. The
unselfish nature of John Nagy once again

info you need for successful Steelheading.

water you don't know about and it should
take pressure off of the usual hotspots. This
is the Bible on Great Lakes Steelhead fishing!

I expected a compilation of standard fly
patterns, but I was way off! In fact, chances
are, you don't know 90% of the patterns in
this book. The book begins with a chapter on
materials and how they are used along with a
hook chart. The next chapters are:
Nymphs, Emergers, Dry Flies, Streamers,
Warmwater Flies,Steelhead Flies, and
Saltwater flies. All up to date patterns in one
book. Flawlessly illustrated by, Mike Stidham.
This is a must for your collection or if you only
buy a book occasionally, this is the one to
have. This will keep you busy tying for years.
Many excellent tyers are missing and it
almost seems like Kaufman's tribute to Spirit
River Flies.

Who wouldn't like a casting lesson from Lefty
Kreh? All of Lefty's knowledge combined with
the perfect photography of Jay Nichols makes
this as close as you can get to a personal
lesson. Of course there are chapters on
casting, but also covered here is how to
prevent injury and a small section on how to
cast bamboo. All of the fishing casts are
covered: reach cast, curve cast, tuck cast,
speed cast, etc.You would expect a fly casting
book by Lefty Kreh to be special, and this
one truly is.

It's not over yet, but this is my pick for "Book
of the Year" in 2007. The research and
photography alone are worth the price. This is
one of those quality productions. Every
generation blames the other for the
devastation of our brook trout streams. Here
is the true story. This is very entertaining and
comprehensive history that covers every
stream in the Catskills. Outstanding book.
This has collector written all over it and it's
going to go fast.
We are fortunate to have autographed copies
of this one!
$60.00 and worth every penny
