Synopsis
"An Angler’s Guide to Aquatic Insects and Their Imitations" helps you identify the insects that trout and other fish feed on in streams and lakes across the country. This fully illustrated guide leads you step by step through the identification process. Then, after you make an indentification, you’ll find a list of fly patterns that match the natural, supplemented by information about the insect’s life cycle, habitat preferences, and specific flyfishing tactics to help you imitate its behavior.
The information in this book will help you solve the most basic flyfishing problem—finding out what the fish are feeding on and being able to match the insect and its behavior in the water. Best of all, no prior knowledge of entomology is required to use this guide. All you need to start is an aquarium net, a pair of tweezers, a few vials, the white lid off a pickle jar, and a desire to become a more knowledgeable, more successful flyfisher.
