Artificial Fly $114 Artificial fly or Fly lure is an angling term closely associated with the sport of fly fishing although artificial flies may be used in other forms of angling. In general, artificial flies are the bait which fly fishers present to their target species of fish while fly fishing. Artificial flies are constructed by the practice of fly tying. Artificial flies may be constructed to represent all manner of potential freshwater and saltwater fish prey to include aquatic and terrestrial insects, crustaceans, worms, baitfish, vegetation, flesh, spawn, small reptiles, amphibians, mammals and birds, etc. Artificial flies were originally constructed from various furs, feathers, threads and hooks. Today there are literally dozens of different types of natural and synthetic materials used to construct artificial flies. In the early years of fly fishing through the mid-20th Century, effective artificial fly patterns were said to be killing flies because of their ability to put fish in the Creel (basket) for the fly fisher. By the mid-19th Century, there were thousands of artificial fly patterns. Today, the number of distinct patterns is probably incalculable. |

Distance Casting : Words and Ways of the Saltwater Fishing Life $24.94 In the summer of 1995, lifelong saltwater fisherman Sid Dobrin accepted a job in the Midwest, taking him far away from the saltwater fishing world that had become a substantial part of his life. The two years he spent away from the ocean gave him the necessary perspective to reflect upon the lure of saltwater fishing familiar to anglers of all types and abilities – the taste of the sea’s salty spray while casting into the surf at sunrise; the calm, quiet drift of a boat on one’s home water; the sudden tug of a battling fish on the end of a line. The result is this beautifully crafted collection of evocative, entertaining, often funny essays on a range of topics guaranteed to appeal to anyone who has ever cast a line into the sea in pursuit of wild gamefish. Dobrin takes the reader through the sometimes tangled role fathers play in the maturing of a young fisherman; the sanctity and security of fishing one’s favorite waters; the special relationships between comfortable fishing partners; the pleasures and pitfalls of drinking and fishing; the mysteries of fly fishing; and much more. |

No Shortage of Good Days $10.99 IN his new book about the delightful torture known as fly fishing, John Gierach again demonstrates the wit, eloquence, and insight that have become his trademarks. Consider this observation about fishing: “From my own experience I can say that a bad back makes you hike slower, stove-up knees keep you from wading confidently, tendinitis of the elbow buggers your casting, and a dose of giardia can send you dashing into the bushes fifteen times in an afternoon, but although none of this is fun, it’s discernibly better than not fishing.” Or this explanation for every fisherman’s fascination with small streams: “The idea is to fish obscure headwater creeks in hopes of eventually sniffing out an underappreciated little trout creek down an un-marked dirt road. Why is another question. I suppose it’s partly for the fishing itself and partly to satisfy your curiosity, but mostly to sustain the belief that such things are still out there to find for those willing to look.” And perhaps the ultimate explanation for the fishing obsession: “I briefly wondered how much trouble a guy should go to in order to catch a few little trout, but then any fish becomes worth catching to the extent that you can’t catch it, so the answer was obvious: Once you decide to try, you go to as much trouble as it takes.” In No Shortage of Good Days Gierach takes usfrom the Smokies in Tennessee to his home waters in Colorado, from the Canadian Maritimes to Mexico—saltwater or fresh, it’s all fishing and all irresistible. As always he writes perceptively about a wide range of subjects: the charm of familiar waters, the etiquette 27.99 of working with new fishing guides, night fishing when the trout and the mosquitoes are both biting, fishing while there is still slush on the river, fishing snobbery, and the delights of fresh fish cooked and eaten within sight of where it was caught. |

The family of flies Bob Popovics developed over the last three decades (dubbed “Pop Fleyes,” a spelling that incorporates part of his last name with the fact that eyes are a prominent feature in their design) have proven devastatingly effective for stripers, bluefish, false albacore, and many more species. This book goes beyond the basic recipe format to provide the thinking behind Popovics’s pattern development, a guide to key tying techniques, and detailed notes on how to fish Pop Fleyes most effectively. |

Predicting The Bite $39.95 This book is loaded with extraordinary new fishing secrets, including the secret of how barometric pressure affects fish behavior. Fishermen have sought it for centuries, and it will change fishing forever. It’s published here for the first time, and can make you a very smart fisherman, and likely a much more successful one. You’ll learn how to accurately predict when fish will be biting and naturally feeding, and put yourself on the water when odds are highest to catch the most fish. Discover how to predict exact days and times when fishing will be best. If you can only fish on Saturday or Sunday, you’ll learn how to predict which day will be better. You’ll know when to go or when to stay home, because you’ll know how to predict when “the bite is on,” especially the best bites. Expect to learn more new knowledge about fishing than from any other single source. It gives a major competitive advantage to tournament fishermen, fishing guides, and charter captains during every trip on the water, including on rivers, lakes of all sizes, and saltwater shores. Every chapter contains powerful information that helps you make accurate fishing predictions for a lifetime. Additionally, everything in the book works worldwide. You’ll learn how flowers can tell you when to go fishing, as will the 70 mile rule, and the 14 day limit, and how wind direction can guide you to the best fishing of the day. Age-old proverbs like “Wind from the east, fishing is least,” and “Fishing is best just before a storm” are also demystified with practical explanations. Nothing in fishing literature is as jam-packed with new information, concepts, and principles that will contribute as much to yourgrowth as a successful fisherman. You’ll be among the first to learn about “ableness” and the pressure rules — which make it possible for you to predict the exact days when fly hatches will occur, and when they will not. They will greatly improve your fishing success, and dramatically |

Giving into the electric attraction she feels when Pete is around is not part of her plan.
