Lou Tabory - "Inshore Fly Fishing: A Pioneering Guide to Fly Fishing Along Coldwater Seacoasts"
Lyons and Burford, 1992. Hardcover. Book Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket: Good. Signed by the author.
From back cover: This book has been needed - and anxiously awaited - for decades; it fills a serious gap in fly-fishing literature - with its focus on fly fishing for striped bass, bluefish, weakfish, and other cold-water marine species. Tabory clearly instructs on how to "read" rips, bars, beaches, flats, jetties, reefs, tidal estuaries, and all other important fishing areas. He outlines what tackle fly fishermen will need, which flies are most effective (and when and how), how to hook and play these great northern gamefish. There are also special sections on tides, night fishing, the use of a stripping basket, drags and drag systems - all a beginning or expert marine fly fisherman will need for this new and exciting kind of fishing."No one I know," says Lefty Kreh in his Foreword to this pathbreaking book, "understands the intricacies of successful fly fishing along the northern Atlantic coast better than Lou Tabory." This pioneering guide will take freshwater fishermen to the sea and it will show saltwater fishermen how to fish a fly. (71/4 X 91/2, 236 pages, color photos, b&w photos, diagrams, charts)
