Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This guide allows an observant non-biologist to classify many nymphs, emergers and adult acquatic insects.
Besides the book you will need a good pocket loup, a small net, a collection bottle and a complete lack of squeemishness.
This book does much of the work of Schweibert's excellent Matching The Hatch in a far more basic and compact package. If you are a trout / steelhead fly-fisher and you want to expand your knowledge of the dinner faire of our favorite salmonids -- this is an excellent place to start.
