Even purists should buy it!
Very nice little book. Lots of "how-tos," where to find the critters and figure out what they're up to and all the flies they like, how to tie them plus a valuable section by Whitlock on the flies he uses for carp. Yes, Whitlock fishes for carp! But why is there no chapter on how to cook one of these creatures? No fishing book is complete (even in the age of love 'em and leave 'em)without one. Shame on you.
You're Fishing For WHAT?
I can finally come out of the closet! Yes, I fish for Carp. Initially with bait but now with a fly rod. This book is a super introduction to the freshwater Bonefish. Carpfishing on the Fly has all you need to get started. Whether it's tackle, tactics or fly patterns you're looking for it's in this book. Of course, there is a great section on why to fish for carp as well as sections on the life cycle and biology of the Golden Salmon. Chances are good you'll find carp near where you live. Grab this book and your fly rod and head for the water.
The best book I ever saw
This book is great for any carp angler even if you don't fly fish. It talks about in debth the behavore of a feeding and non feeding carp. I give it 15 thumbs up
