Description
Book SynopsisWith the growing popularity of salt water fly-fishing today, we easily forget that this sport was only begun in the 1930s-1950s. Brooks was one of the earliest pioneers of salt water techniques and salt water flies—both of which still catch fish today. His book, originally published in 1950, remains one of the best overall guides to the sport.
Trade ReviewBrooks wrote the seminal work on [saltwater fly fishing], and his book remains a valuable and instructive how-to manual. His prose remains among the best in American outdoor writing. -- Art Scheck
This book also puts you in the company of Joe Brooks, one of the most pleasant and engaging angling companions a reader could have. -- Chris Camuto * Gray's Sporting Journal *
