Produktbeschreibung
Every fly fisher comes to the sport eager to learn but with limited knowledge. Gaining more understanding and developing skills is best accomplished by finding a mentor, being studious, and/or joining a group of like-minded individuals. This book chronicles Doug Porter's almost 70-year journey learning the art, craft, and science of fly fishing, and the people who influenced him along the way. In this book you will be introduced to many of those who mentored, inspired, or otherwise shared their knowledge and skills. Most of these fly fishers unselfishly dedicated time and effort not only to advance the sport, but also to help improve the environment and habitat of the fish they pursued. You will also better understand how patterns, equipment, and materials have evolved to meet the ever changing needs and demands of the serious fly fisher.
