On Fly-Fishing the Northern Rockies by Chadd Vanzanten,Russ Beck Pdf

Anyone would be hard-pressed to find a pastime more emblematic of the western spirit than fly-fishing. Liberating, poetic, wild, soothing and inspiring, it pushes the boundaries of the mind. In essays ranging from introspective to ironic, angler authors Chadd VanZanten and Russ Beck distill the purest truths of fly-fishing into essential, often humorous rules of thumb. With kernels like "always tell the truth sometimes" and "all the fish are underwater," wade into the blue ribbon waters of Montana, Idaho, Wyoming and Utah to reflect metaphysically on these lines of practical wisdom.

On Fly-Fishing the Wind River Range by Chadd VanZanten Pdf

With remote waterways and unpressured trout, Wyoming's Wind River Range is the backcountry fly angler's mecca. In the alpine lakes and streams, trout may approach a dry fly two or more at a time, and an angler can cast for days without seeing another person, let alone another angler. But more than just a place to catch lots of fish, the range is also a place to disconnect from noise and networks and reconnect with oneself. In a series of essays on misfortunate father-and-son backpacking trips, disaffected Boy Scouts, psychotropic deep-woods epiphanies and many other topics, author Chadd VanZanten offers not only a survey of the fishing and history of the Wind Rivers but a tour of personal landscapes as well.

Tributary (full Color) by Joshua Bergan Pdf

When do salmonflies hatch on Montana's Boulder River? How exactly does Wyoming's stream access law work? What is Whitefish Ed? When should I plan a trip into the Wind River Range? This 8.5x11, 290-page compendium of fly-fishing writer Joshua Bergan's work from 2006-2021 answers those questions and more, alongside all-new original content. This is the perfect supplement to the where-to guidebooks, and it provides a fresh look at fishing in Montana and Wyoming (even a little about Idaho). Tributary is a quick and easy read riddled with sharp, vivid imagery that portrays the beauty of fly-fishing. It aims to be a more nuanced look at details of our beloved art-sport-hobby-pastime, that goes beyond the usual topics and discussions. It fills in the details on where-to, how-to, when-to, and why-to that guidebooks aren't designed to cover. Says Bergan: "It's acting on the awareness that we all have a limited number of days in this often-difficult existence, so we should spend as many of them as we can in ways that keep us elevated." Once you've read the guidebooks, you're ready for Tributary.

The Voices of Rivers by Matthew Dickerson Pdf

Dickerson's lovingly crafted narratives take us to waters from sockeye spawning streams of Alaska's Lake Clark and Katmai National Parks, to Rocky Mountain rivers in the national parks and forests of Montana and Wyoming, to the little brook trout creeks in his home waters of Maine. Along the way we will fall in love with arctic streams, glacial rivers flowing green with flour, alpine brooks tumbling out of melting snow, and little estuaries where lobsters and brook trout swim within a few yards of each other; with wide deep lakes, little mountain tarns with crystal clear water, and tannin-laden beaver ponds the color of tea. The narratives are creative, personal, and compelling, yet informed by science and history as well as close observation and the eye of a naturalist. The characters in the stories are fascinating, from fly fishing guides to fisheries biologists to wranglers to Dickerson himself who often explores the rivers with a fly rod in hand, but whose writing transcends any sort of fishing narrative. But the most important characters are the rivers themselves whose stories Dickerson tells, and whose music he helps us to hear.

A Fine-Spotted Trout on Corral Creek by Matthew Dickerson Pdf

Matthew Dickerson's well-crafted prose narrative takes readers from the headwaters of the Colorado River in Wyoming to the Crown of the Continent in Glacier National Park. In the midst of the lovingly described wild and scenic beauty of these places, readers will learn about the science, history, conservation, and restoration of an important native fish—cutthroat trout—and the habitats where they live, while enjoying stories of the pursuit of those fish with both a fly rod and a camera. The book is well-informed by science as well as careful observation, and conveys both the passion and knowledge of the author. The author, Matthew Dickerson, was a 2017 artist-in-residence at Glacier National Park, invited to that residence specifically to learn and write about cutthroat trout. Much of what he learned and observed is shared in this book, along with stories and knowledge gleaned from times in the national forests of Wyoming and interviews with USGS, U.S.Forest Service, and National Park Service biologists. It is well-informed by science, but doesn't read like a scientific text.
