Tackle, Techniques, and Flies for the Fish of a Lifetime

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Striped bass, or simply "stripers," are a premiere saltwater sportfish that can grow to over 50 pounds and swim in giant schools that will churn the surface of the water to a froth as they feed on baitfish, creating heart-pumping, fast-paced fly fishing. Originally native to the eastern United States, they have also been introduced to the West Coast as well as thousands of inland reservoirs, and the rivers that flow into them, making stripers one of the most widely distributed and accessible sportfish in the world. In this comprehensive guide, author John L. Field describes foods they eat, the best flies and methods to imitate those foods, and where today's angler stands the best chance of catching a trophy fish. Top guides, creative tiers, and marine biologists contribute their experience and expertise to this book.
