If you fish with a fly, you already know that these creatures are objects of endless fascination. After a lifetime fishing the West, John Holt now catches more than a half-dozen huge browns each year, each weighing more than five pounds.

Fishing to sighted trout is one of the most exciting forms of trout fishing, but fishing to a trout is not enough the aim is to catch it. Les Hill and Graeme Marshall have combined their talents once again after a more than ten year gap to jointly write what is destined to become a New Zealand Classic. The first time they collaborated was in 1984 when they co-wrote Stalking Trout they followed up in 1991 with Catching Trout and Images of Silver in 1993. It is a testament to the ideas they contain that all have been continually in print since publication. Stalking Trout has been reprinted over twelve times. In the twenty years since the first book both have continued to fish and learn the ways of trout and more importantly catching them. Graeme Marshall became a full time professional fishing guide (now retired) while Les Hill has become a photographer specialising in trout fishing, his work has been seen regularly in outdoor magazines and books in New Zealand and North America. The knowledge gained in the past twenty years brings new insights into stalking and catching trout.

Ed Van Put begins this important book with the history of native brook trout and offers little-known details about their sizes, range, and demise from over-fishing, the growth of streamside industries, and the introduction of competitive species. Sweeping in its scope, Trout Fishing in the Catskills tells a thorough tale of the often tumultuous history of fishing in the Catskills. With a scope of over a century, Van Put tells of the Catskill’s frontier fishing beginnings and tracks the rise, fall, and eventual revival of the fisheries. Throughout, this is a history of people and methods as well as rivers, and there are profiles of Theodore Gordon, Art Flick, Harry and Elsie Darbee, Sparse Grey Hackle, and more. No serious trout fisherman, in any part of the country, will want to miss this pioneering portrait of a seminal region in American angling history.
