* Strategies for selective trout in clear water * New patterns designed for spring creeks and how to fish them * Simple explanations of the major hatches on spring creeks across the country Spring creeks, those rare waters that flow right out of the earth--in whole or in part--are both a blessing and a curse for anglers. They are a blessing because the clear, cold, nutrient-rich waters grow abundant insects, which in turn grow and sustain large populations of healthy trout. They flow free of ice in the winter and run cool during the hottest parts of summer, providing year-round angling. In many ways, this bounty becomes a curse, because the abundance and steady supply of food can spoil the trout, making them less likely to take a piece of fluff and feathers. Many spring creeks are also small, their challenges enhanced by weed-choked runs and tricky currents. Mike Heck, expert fly tier and guide from southcentral Pennsylvania, the cradle of American spring-creek country, shares the tactics and techniques he teaches his clients to catch these tough trout. Heck includes his top fly patterns, tips on matching the major hatches of Tricos, Baetis, and Sulphurs (PMDs), and his thoughts on stealth and presentation. Whether you fish Letort Spring Run in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, or DePuy's Spring Creek in Livingston, Montana, Heck's Spring Creek Strategies will help you become a more successful angler.

Every existence has its pulse points," writes Ted Leeson in this latest book, "those places where life rises somehow closer to the surface and makes itself more keenly felt. Spring creeks have been mine." Jerusalem Creek is an exploration into the unique landscape of the "driftless area" in southwest Wisconsin, "a geography of small concealments"-of coves and hollows, oak groves and shady bends, winding brooks and trout. "It is not a landscape that you hike up, or climb down into, or stand out looking upon; it is one that you slip inside of," and this book presents the view from within. Leeson reflects on waters and people, and the experiences and ideas that shaped his understanding of spring creek country. By turns thoughtful and hilarious, passionate and wry, he journeys into the special charms of small-scale waters and pastoral spaces; the nature of meandering trout streams and fishermen; ruminations on dairy cows, honeybees, and the midwestern character; family and angling companions; Amish farmsteads; the memory of a missing photograph; the equivocal dream of owning a trout stream; the ways in which the past endures in the present. Layered and overlapping, like the limestone geology of driftless country, the meditations in this book cumulatively tell the story of how we create the places we love, and how they in turn create us. Jerusalem Creek is a wise, poignant, and haunting book about those places that remain with us long after we've left them.

Tom Wendelburg lives to fish. A prolific outdoor writer and photographer, a respected and innovative flytier, a keen observer of fish habitat and behavior, a versatile and passionate fisherman--Wendelburg is all of these. He is one of the most-published writers on fishing, with bylines in such magazines as Fly Fisherman, but this is his first book. Catching Big Fish on Light Fly Tackle is a book to be savored and re-read, for it distills decades of fly-fishing knowledge. It includes Wendelburg's philosophy of using light tackle, his insights on surface and underwater tactics, discussions of his favorite fish (trout, bass, bluegills, salmon, and steelhead) and of his favorite flies, including much-admired fly patterns that he developed (Wendelburg's Hare's Ear Scud and his no-hackle hairwing dry fly). Wendelburg is a consummate fisherman and a first-rate teacher, and his enthusiasm is infectious.

In this love letter disguised as an anthology, author Ted Rulseh expresses his deep affinity with that singular body of water we call Lake Michigan. In a collection of 107 seasonally grouped essays that first appeared in his regular column in the Manitowoc Herald Times Reporter, his easy prose is at once rich and satisfyingly restrained. While he waxes nearly poetic in some passages, he never allows his writing to wallow in cheap sentimentality. Instead, he lets the life of the Lake, his hometown of Two Rivers, and adjoining lakeshore communities speak for itself, with quietly compelling results. On the Pond evokes a sense of place strong enough to take a rightful position alongside the works of the most celebrated American writers. With the eye of a writer, the soul of an outdoorsman, and the heart of a small-town boy. Ted Rulseh brings home the essence of life next to one of the most fabled of the Great Lakes, in all its many moods. From the sudden and unpredictable storms of autumn and shrieking winter gales to the tentative warmth of spring and summer's full glory, Lake Michigan is revealed as an alternately soothing and tempestuous -- but never dull -- neighbor. A pleasing chronicle of small-town life that manages to hang on amid the relentless march of time and technology, this book is also a keenly observant naturalist's journal. Let it take you away for a while to a place where gulls wheel above steel-gray waves, and dune walkers pull their jackets a little tighter. Book jacket.

“Spring Creek is everything a fishing book should be,” says Craig Nova. “It has the ability to convey the magic that always exists between somebody who loves fishing and a particular piece of water that endlessly lives up to its end of the bargain.” It has been called Lyons's masterpiece. The river is one of those rare places where the trout are as long as your arm but also exceedingly difficult to catch. Lyons explores its secrets and confronts its greatest challenges. At first he catches little. Then slowly, he acquires the various and special skills and disciplines necessary to take the large wary brown trout of this extraordinary river. Spring Creek is a memoir of halcyon days on a remarkable river and it draws a rare portrait of an angler actually learning to fish more wisely. It is a richly humorous and perceptive account of an angler's passion for his spot—and a book all fishermen will cherish.

Learn how to hook more trout on these crucial Western waters. Learn what types of casts to STOP making and what really constitutes a Money-Cast. Details on fly recipes, leader/tippet construction, and much more for any trout stream that holds trout anywhere in the U.S. You need both Presentation skills and Imitations for success. You can always use a local Guide, but it is more fun to learn how to guide yourself. This Manual has more information than is understood by most local guides because it is based on the knowledge of dozens of professional guides. If you stick with it, over the years, your expanded knowledge will be well rewarded. Whether you are a Novice or an Expert, there is always something here that will add to your skills.This book is NOT about "Contact" Nymphing methods (such as European nymphing) but rather "Suspension" Nymphing methods, where the "strike indicator" is really a method to suspend the nymph high in the water column, near the surface. Our methods are much more productive than the typical "dry fly plus dropper" methods, and we teach how to customize various types of strike indicators to make micro-indicators that will allow fishing the nymph only 10" or so from the indicator. These "elevated" nymphing tactics are only well-known by a few spring creek anglers and almost no tail-water anglers. Have fun, learn, and change your tactics during the day to suit the situation.
