For many serious stillwater anglers, a float tube, pontoon boat or kayak is not a luxury - it is an essential tool. Particularly valuable for stillwater fly fishers, the book shows how personal watercraft can unlock access to drop-offs, weedbeds, shoals and other fish-holding areas rarely reached from the bank. Drawing on years of experience, Mitchell covers float tubes, pontoon boats, canoes, kayaks, inflatables and jon boats, explaining the strengths and limitations of each. He also discusses rivers, lakes, wind, currents, weather, safety equipment and craft-specific fishing techniques. Illustrated throughout with b&w photographs, this is an excellent introduction to fishing craft and a worthy addition to any serious stillwater angling library. Good, sturdy condition. Softcover, 23cm x 19cm, 100 pages.
