"If you know an angler who is just getting started with fly fishing, or even a seasoned angler who appreciates the history of fly fishing and trout fishing knowledge, check out Simple Fly Fishing Revised Second Edition: Techniques for Tenkara and Rod and Reel by Yvon Chouinard, Craig Matthews and Mauro Mazzo." -- The Sustainable Angler Gift Guide, Therein lies the book's charm. Part straightforward how-to, part back-to-basics manifesto, the volume is also a bit of a sermon that seeks to spread the good word about a centuries-old Japanese technique known as "tenkara" that Mr. Chouinard believes is the hands-down easiest and most pleasurable way to fish. Wall Street Journal, "The anglers that have the most to gain are those that are interested in fly fishing and who want to use the simplicity of tenkara as an entry point into the seemingly complex world of fly fishing. For those anglers, Simple Fly Fishing offers that entry point and provides methods of fly fishing with a tenkara rod - while at the same time filling in enough of the fly fishing background that if they want to transition to rod and reel they are not in the dark." -- castingaround.com, Simplify. It's the reason many anglers head to the nearest river or lake to appreciate the joys and meditation of fly fishing. In a new book, three fly fishing gurus take simplicity a step further. -- ExploreBigSky.com, There is an honest and wisdom-filled discussion on topics that every freshwater fly fisher spends their lives trying to master. - The Mission, Simple Fly Fishing by Yvon Chouinard has quickly become a classic. . . . [It] reveals the secrets and the soul of this captivating sport. -- Midcurrent, "Simple Fly Fishing masterfully tackles each aspect of fly fishing to reveal new deliberate and technical yet simpler ways to approach the sport. The book simplifies things while teaching strategies that might even make you a better angler." -- venturingangler.com, "The book as artifact is filled with stunning photography and educational illustrations that will have you dreaming about your next time on the water." -- Angler's Journal
Synopsis
When it comes to fly fishing, simpler is better. Modern-day fly fishing, like much in life, has become exceedingly complex, with high-tech gear, a confusing array of flies and terminal tackle, accompanied by high-priced fishing guides. 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. Then it describes the techniques needed to present a fly at that depth, make it look lifelike, and hook the fish. 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.
