Designed for both intermediate and experienced anglers, the book covers every aspect of stillwater trout fishing, beginning with the basics before moving into detailed discussions of fly patterns, trout feeding habits, entomology, casting techniques, retrieves, seasonal tactics and how weather and water conditions affect fishing success. Church explains the methods he developed through competitive and professional fly fishing, while Jardine focuses on the underwater world that trout inhabit and feed in. B&w photographs throughout.
