Fly Fishing For Bonefish - Dick Brown

Fly Fishing For Bonefish - Dick Brown

Product description

The new revised edition of Dick Brown’s Fly Fishing for Bonefish examines the entire spectrum of bonefishing techniques—including methods for handling difficult challenges like wind and low light. It also discusses scores of new developments in bonefish feeding-behavior, research and prey-preference studies, as well as describing today’s newest fly patterns and destinations.

Updated information includes:

  • Recent bonefish research
  • New feeding behavior data
  • Prey preferences discovered
  • Hot new fly patterns
  • Recent destination changes
  • New advice for stripping, hooking up, & playing fish
  • Better fish spotting techniques

  • While presenting all of the original edition’s comprehensively detailed discussion of bonefish behavior and flats angling strategy, Dick’s newest book also drills down on some of today’s most difficult challenges facing flats anglers, giving advice on sight fishing under different types of cloud cover, casting accuracy in wind, knowing when to strike, seeing fish better, spotting them in more situations, better casting, aiming, and stripping techniques, and special wading strategies. The equipment section is virtually new to include the latest manufacturers and models, the fly pattern sections were expanded to include about two-dozen of today’s hottest flats flies, and the destinations chapter expanded to add today’s newest fisheries. The final chapter includes advice from eleven expert flats anglers and guides, detailing their individual theories and strategies—which do not always agree—for handling the most difficult flats challenges. Many anglers—newcomers and veterans alike—find themselves reading this fascinating discussion over and over again. The new edition features color photographs throughout.
