Download or read book Selective Trout written by Doug Swisher and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it was originally published in 1971, Selective Trout was universally acclaimed as the most revolutionary approach to aquatic insect imitation in the twentieth century. Using common sense, science, and imagination, authors Doug Swisher and Carl Richards developed a wide array of new patterns that were in sharp contrast to those offerings used by American fly fishermen up to that time. Their radical no-hackle dry fly, in particular, proved to be a more convincing, natural silhouette than anything anglers had ever seen before. With hatch charts covering different regions of the country, and featuring detailed tying instructions for flies that could be used in those regions, all liberally illustrated, the book provided anglers with a new arsenal of deadly fly patterns. Thirty years later, and after more than 200,000 copies of the first edition had been sold, a Thirtieth Anniversary Edition was brought out. Updated and revised by the authors, with new observations on trout behavior as well as detailed instructions on how to keep useful fishing logs, the book also featured detailed appendices on terrestrials, mayflies, caddisflies, and stoneflies. Not only that, but the new edition included hundreds of color illustrations by the renowned artist and fly-fishing innovator Dave Whitlock. It’s hard to imagine how anything could top that. In this new paperback edition of Selective Trout we know that we can’t top what’s been done previously. But we do know that this deserves to stay in print, because it’s the type of book that every fly fisherman should own and read. To add a new twist to this new edition, what we have done is added a new introduction by Doug Swisher (Carl Richards passed away in 2006), plus a new foreword by Nick Lyons, the book publisher who had the foresight to get behind the book in the first place.

Download or read book The Lake Trout of Twin Lakes Colorado written by John R. Griest and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growth, survival, reproduction, recruitment, and food habits of lake trout in Twin Lakes, Colo., were examined during 1974-1975 to document the status of the trout population prior to completion of a 200-megawatt pumped-storage hydroelectric powerplant being constructed on the lake. The powerplant will become operational in 1977, and data collected during this study will be compared to similar data collected during the post-construction period to determine the effect of plant operations of the trout population. Growth of lake trout in Twin Lakes in comparable to that of other lake trout fisheries in the Western United States, such as Lake Tahoe, Nev.-Calif., and Fish Lake, Utah, and is somewhat faster than most lakes located in Canada. Annual mortality was found to be near 50 percent, which compares with other lake trout fisheries of this type. Successful reproduction of lake trout was confirmed by the presence of age classes that had not been stocked. Approximately 90 percent of 4-year-old fish captured during the study were from natural reproduction. Lake trout reaching the legal size limit of 381 mm were usually 4-year-olds, with approximately 20 percent of the population reaching this size each year. Lake trout in Twin Lakes feed primarily on Mysis relicta. Chironomid larvae, white suckers, and rainbow trout are also eaten. Possible effects of powerplant operation on the lake trout population are outlined and discussed.
