Underwater Flies for Trout

Underwater Flies for Trout by Fuller, Tom. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780070226340.

Although the idea of using underwater flies is as old as fly-fishing itself, modern anglers and entomologists have vastly expanded our knowledge of what trout eat underwater, where and when they find these tasty morsels, and how better to fool the trout with underwater imitations. Tom Fullers unflagging curiosity about the art of fly-fishing, and his impatience with the narrow confines of dry-fly fishing, have led him to experiment with and expand on the traditional and modern methods of fishing underwater flies. The result of his nearly lifelong interest is this book, the first comprehensive guide on the subject. Nymphs, emergers, streamers, and traditional and new wet flies - he covers them all, both in still water and swift, including new and improved patterns for dressing nymphs, streamers, and other imitations. And no matter how good a fly-caster you are or how perfect your imitation, you wont catch trout if you dont know where to find them. Underwater Flies for Trout tells you where to look for trout, how to approach them, and how to present artificials in a lifelike manner.
