Doug Swisher and Carl Richards - "Selective Trout: A Dramatically New Scientific Approach to Trout Fishing on Eastern and Western Rivers"
Crown, New York, 1988. hardcover. Book Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket: Fair.
SELECTIVE TROUT has been hailed as the most revolutionary new approach to trout-fly imitation of the twentieth century. Fly Fisherman magazine called it “the most important book on fly fishing of this decade.” Writer and angling historian Paul Schullery said in American Fly Fishing that the book “outlined many of the most important mayfly hatches in the best-known trout-fishing regions, and from that solid entomological foundation it introduced a striking and still-provocative series of flies. . . .” In calculating the effect of its impact and practicality, Joe Brooks said that “both beginners and veterans benefit immeasurably.”
