Explains in great detail the most pleasant method to use when fly fishing for steelhead. Because it was originally published in England as a method for taking Atlantic salmon, we asked Bill McMillan, noted Northwest greased line steelhead angler, to write a long introduction explaining how the method works for summer-and winter-run steelhead. Included are 42 illustrations and four color plates of the best steelhead and Atlantic salmon flies. So thorough and contains so many interesting technique ideas that you will want to reread it.

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.
