Download or read book Fly Fishing for Beginners written by Chris Hansen and published by Creative Publishing International. This book was released on 2002-12 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many anglers who wish to get started in fly fishing are intimidated. With so many choices of expensive rods, reels, lines, leaders and flies, it's difficult to know where to begin. And it doesn't help that a few of the so-called "experts" in the field write articles implying the sport is difficult to master. The truth is, to be a successful fly angler you don't need to know everything about everything. That's what sets this book apart from the many other fly fishing books available today. In these pages, veteran fly-fishing instructor Chris Hansen concentrates on teaching you the basics. For example, if you aren't sure what level fly angler you are, check out Hansen's "10 Ways to Tell If You're a Beginner." Want to learn how to fly cast? Read "12 Tips to Making the Perfect Cast." And if you think you must carry everything but the kitchen sink with you every time you wade into a stream, look at Hansen's "8 Accessories for Every Trip." Hansen understands the best reason to try fly fishing is that in many situations you can catch more fish with flies than you can with spinning or baitcasting lures. In this book's final chapter, "Catching Fish on Flies," he details these situations for panfish, trout, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and even northern pike. In addition, he shows you his "Top 10 Fly Patterns" for each species and the best retrieves for getting finicky fish to strike.

This book reveals that the best way to catch trout is simply, with a rod and a fly and not much else. The wisdom in this book comes from a simpler time, when the premise was: the more you know, the less you need. It teaches the reader how to discover where the fish are, at what depth, and what they are feeding on.

With chapters on wet flies, nymphs, and dry flies, its authors employ both the tenkara rod as well as regular fly fishing gear to cover all the bases. Illustrated by renowned fish artist James Prosek, with inspiring photographs and stories throughout, Simple Fly Fishing reveals the secrets and the soul of this captivating sport.

Download or read book Spin Fishing for Trout written by David E. Dirks and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improve your trout fishing productivity & satisfaction. Here are just some of the topics covered Spin Fishing for Trout: Strategies & Tactics for Success - Spin Fishing Equipment – Common Mistakes & How to Correct Them – Favorite Seasonal Lures and Tactics – Lure Performance: Spinners and Spoons – Common Water Structures and How to Fish Them – Fishing Small Lakes, Brooks and Ponds – Weather and its Impact on Lure Selection – Tactics for Fishing Pressured Water – Tactics for Targeting and Catching Larger Trout – When to Change Lures and Tactics – Angler Behavior: Doing the Right Thing on the Water. This book is not a basic 101 course on spin fishing for trout. There are already plenty of excellent basic “how-to” books to help you master the basics of using spin fishing equipment. Spin Fishing for Trout is a compilation of strategies and tactics pulled from formal and informal discussions with professional guides and trout spinning experts from across the country. Each year, millions of anglers spend time plying their local waters and trout waters from other destinations. Since it was introduced in the mid-20th century, spin fishing has become a national favorite for catching all kinds of fish in both freshwater and saltwater. My goal with this book was to search out and put together the experience and perspectives of multiple anglers: Anglers who fish for trout and spend more time on the water doing it than the average angler. Anglers who work to make a living out of it, selling services or products to average fishermen. Anglers who have gained a volume of knowledge based on 30, 40 or even 50 years of spin fishing experience. Why settle for one angler's perspective on a specific subject when a number of insights from different levels and different anglers can be offered to readers? So, in addition to what I have contributed to this book based on my collective spin fishing experience of over 35 years, you have the perspectives of different anglers who come to the sport from entirely different sets of angling histories. No one angler attacks a fishing challenge exactly the same as another. Every angler has learned based on the depth and width of their angling experiences. In all, the anglers who have helped me craft this book bring a collective experience base of more than 200 years to angling for you to review and select what works. This book is thick with insights on pro tactics for catching more fish consistently. Sprinkled liberally throughout this book you'll see special inserts noted as “PRO TACTICS.” When you see these inserts pop up in the book, they are from the collective wisdom of the many expert anglers who've helped me over the years become a better trout fisherman. Think of this book as helping you to continue to strengthen the foundation of trout angling expertise that you already possess. Take what you want from it, liberally and freely, and use it well. Absorb the points made in the chapters of this book, letting them sink into your consciousness and seep into your actions on the water. That's the one thing that I can appreciate the most when it comes to fishing: There is always something new to learn. [email protected]/dirksoutdoors

Download or read book Trout Fishing for the Beginner written by Richard Clapham and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trout-Fishing for the Beginner Although anglers are well supplied with books pertaining to their favourite sport, the majority of such volumes appeals more to the practised fisherman than the novice. Many a beginner, however, is dependent on books for information regarding trout-fishing and the tools of the craft, and naturally expects to find simple hints that will start him on the road to success. The acquisition of an ill-balanced rod and unsuitable tackle tends to engender a slovenly method of fishing that is absolutely detrimental to good sport. A fair start, with a few simple but correct items of outfit, is everything; the proper methods will then be cultivated from the beginning. It is, therefore, with the idea of helping the beginner that I have written this book, and I hope the information contained therein may prove useful to prospective anglers of both sexes.
