Adventure-minded anglers can chase the elusive, silvery steelhead with this book of techniques, revelations, and observations by an expert guide. Pointers include selecting the most effective fly for various river conditions, choosing the right tackle, adjusting to different water types, spey casting, and finding the most productive streams of the season, and a chapter on why steelhead choose to take or refuse a fly is included.

reviewed: "A marvelous book by a true sportsman  ... This is an incredible book that in simple and understandable wording outlines the sport of flyfishing. As a complete novice to flyfishing, by reading Dec's book, I learned about various types of flies, how to cast, types of casts, body movement needed to complete the cast, the steps of the perfect cast, necessary equipment for the angler, types of rods, reels, weights, line, clothing, how to hold the pole, "presenting your fly to the fish," how to read the topography and currents of the river to understand the fish, and where these amazing creatures prefer to lie, how to tie knots, descriptions and type of fish, where the best fishing spots are, what to expect when fishing through each of the 4 seasons, and fishermen safety.
