Let My People Go Fishing
This new book by Yvon Chouinard, Craig Mathews, and Mauro Mazzo, reveals the best way to catch trout: simply, with a rod and a fly and not much else. It teaches how to discover where the fish are and what they are feeding on, then demonstrates techniques to present a fly, make it look life-like, and hook the fish.
"Simple Fly Fishing: Techniques for Tenkara and Rod & Reel" will be available from Patagonia Books in spring 14.
