Saltwater Fly Fishing - Jack Samson - Book

Saltwater Fly Fishing: The Challenge and Adventure of Offshore and Flats Fishing with a Fly. Jack Samson, author. Foreword by Billy Pate.

Saltwater Fly Fishing not only brings us up to date on the latest in rods, reels, fly lines, leaders, and flies but also makes simple the formerly complicated world of knots for the saltwater fly rodder.

In addition, author Jack Samson covers the history of saltwater fly fishing from its beginnings in nineteenth-century England to the present day.

But it is the exciting narrative tales of fly fishing - from bonefish in the Bahamas and Florida Keys to sailfish and marlin from Venezuela to Australia - that set this exceptional book apart from others in the field. Samson tells us how it feels to take the world-record roosterfish (31 pounds, 12 ounces) on a fly in Costa Rica, or to battle a black marlin from Venezuela on a fly rod in heavy seas off Cape Bowling Green, Australia.

The reader learns how to do it by hearing how it was done - from playing a leaping tarpon in the rivers of Costa Rica to fighting redfish on the shallow flats of the Texas coast.

Illustrated with over 115 color and black-and-white photographs, Saltwater Fly Fishing is based on the firsthand experience of a true veteran of the sport.

Book size: h.9.25" x w.6.25". Hardbound. 212 pages; color and b/w photographs; illustrations.
