About this title

Synopsis

Chasing the lightning-fast bonefish across the south Pacific, Florida, and the Caribbean is for many anglers a near obsession, and this is the handbook to such fly-fishing adventure. Author Dick Brown, a widely experienced bonefisher and fly tyer who writes for several angling journals, offers keen advice for successful bonefishing – both his insights and those of other experts such as Lefty Kreh, Ben Estes, and Stu Apte. Brown and his cohorts help the reader spot, stalk, cast to and strike this most wily, challenging quarry. He also analyzes the use of numerous flies, telling which patterns work best and when, and details superb bonefishing destinations with fully up-to-date information.
