This book would be very good for a novice but doesn't have very many new ideas for a veteran fly fisherman.

Enjoyed it. There are a lot of "ways" in here a person doesn't think of. I've got more views for fly fishing now.

Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2020
As Ernest Hemingway was to bull fighting, so Ed Engle is to fly fishing. Every trout featured in this book shows so much courage that they become part of one of those "difficult days" on the river. Having a bad day on your favorite trout stream? Will those tight little brookies never become interested in even in the very best of your hand tied flies? Well, even though you may be tempted to put a piece of doughnut on your line out of sheer despair, don't do it. Read Engle's book instead. I read this book some years back and I haven't had a single difficult day since.

Five stars!

While I have read most of Ed Engle's books, I find his latest to be a good summary of tactics and techniques for difficult days astream. Sprinkled with experiences and anecdotes, it gives detailed suggestions that will increase potential success. Engle writes well, and is to be recommended to experienced anglers, and anglers who have experienced tough days on the water.....
