Joe Brooks was a fishing pioneer, and this compendium of his dispatches spans the history of modern fly fishing. At his peak, he logged 75,000 miles a year in Central and South America, from Mexico to Tierra del Fuego, where he was one of the first to fish for bonefish with a fly. He cast for tiger fish in Africa, and angled the atolls of the South Pacific and the lakes of New Zealand. Included in this volume are such classic selections as: The Trout We Fish For Dry Fly Fishing for Trout Fishing the Wet Fly Nymph Fishing Fishing Streamers and Bucktails for Trout Landing Bass on the Fly Boca Fever Add a Little Salt Northern Lights Fish Inshore Saltwater Fishing Chumming and Offshore Fly Fishing Those Freedom-Loving Sickletails and many more Brooks has been described as "the world's best fly fisherman." Reading these pieces, it's easy to see why.Sedgwick, Don is the author of 'Joe Brooks On Fishing', published 2004 under ISBN 9781592284511 and ISBN 1592284515.
