Summary: If you can keep only one fly fishing book, this is it!
Comment: I bought the initial (Athenum Publishing.) edition in Feb. 1983. Read it so many times, and lent it so often (sorry, Art) that the spine is cracked. Bought this version in March 1998; he updated when appropriate (sadly Nylorfi is no longer available for tippets, and yes you can 'hang' yourself on it). This is a great read--the chapter on tying your own leaders is worth the price of the book. "Presenting the Fly" and "The Correct Approach" are essential reading for every fly fisher. Whitlock offers more tactics, and Joe Humphrey offers great insight, but Art is the most gifted writer on the subject of fly fishing. Buy it! Read it now. Read it each winter. Give a copy to anyone who wants to flyfish for trout with dry flies (Is there really any other way?). The only other fishing writer in his league is Frank Daignault.

Summary: An excellent book for any level of expertise.
Comment: Art Lee's book dispenses with the "myth" of trout fishing and presents in a clear and entertaining manner the true enjoyment of fly-fishing. " Fishing Dry Flies for Trout on Rivers and Streams" illustrates that presentation and reading the water is more important than looking like a hardware store on the stream and changing flies every two minutes. A well written and intelligent book on a subject often shrouded in a "match the hatch" mystery.
