Description

Flyfishing the High Country by John Gierach looks at tactics for fishing high country lakes, the conflicting currents of high mountain streams, and the ever-changing waters of beaver ponds. Cutthroats, brook trout, goldens, rainbows, grayling. The best weather and seasons to fish and the tackle and flies to take into the high country.

“The mountains–any mountains–can make you pay for your fishing with time, shoe leather, exertion, and even disappointment. But they usually give back more than they take in terms of solitude and a sense of adventure that you just wont find on more civilized waters.” –John Gierach

John Gierach is a highly trusted and trustable opinion-maker in fly-fishing. People take what he says to the bank. While most of Gierach’s writing is essay-style and reflective, here he gets down to the nitty-gritty: how he ties his favorite flies and why he thinks they work so well for him. There is, thus, an instant reader connection: “Gierach’s patterns are good enough for me.” Few anglers will skip knowing what a master angler and thinker prefers for his fly box. This title covers a gamut of patterns essential to trout fishing in a variety of circumstances: dry flies, wet flies and nymphs, and streamers. Gierach’s legion of fans of his regular magazine column will be highly inclined to buy this title.
