Summary: I should have waited until winter...
Comment: This is the type of book that can transport you back to the stream in a moment. In the dead of winter while I'm tying flies this book would help me remember the take, the run, the awe and release. But I didn't wait and I'm glad. This book is a treasure of sights and words that works any time of year. Charles Lindsay's photo's are very unique and yet at once familiar to anyone who has fished a stream. Dream-like and enchanting. If you fly fish, buy this book, buy two, one for your best fishing buddy too.

Summary: perfect meld of pix and text
Comment: Tom McGuane is hands-down our best fishing writer. His observations are always provocative and invariably dressed in memorable language. The surprise here is Charles Lindsay's photographs. Lindsay does not give us familiar shot of the country's top fly fishing destinations, as do most tomes in the photo book genre. Rather he offers a look at the shape and whirl and textures of fly fishing. He gives us the trout as it noses up out of the element to take a fly, or as it leaps from the water, sending a spray of water. He offers rainbows schooling beneath the surface, the water purling over rock so that it is hard to tell where the water stops and the rock begins. A lovely meld of words and pictures.
