 
Fly Fishing: A Woman's Guide (Paperback)
by Dana Rikimaru; 1999; 160pp; isbn 0071581855
"I knew I was in trouble when I began to dream about fly fishing ... Fly fishing had become a passion, not just a pastime. I was hooked," writes author Dana Rikimaru, one of America's leading fly fishing instructors, of her beginnings in this poetic sport. Filled with adventures and encouragement contributed by women who are already fly fishing, this woman-to-woman guide gives you everything you need to wade right in ... to know where to go ... what to take ... and how to savor every moment of discovering a new sport. It even provides resources that can connect you with other women fly fishers. So whether you fly fish "to catch fish" (even if you release them to be caught another day) or because, as the author says, "trout live in beautiful places," this guide is a woman's path into a very special activity. reviewed:"If you can't afford to buy this book... then steal a copy! Prior to reading this book, I found I had so many questions, and that was after taking a 3 day class at a local fly shop. I blundered about all summer trying to remember how to do this or that. Dana answered ALL of my questions on general fly fishing in this one book. She covers everything from gear to safety (for women fishing alone), from knots to bug selection, from casting to playing fish. And all in clear, concise words... and she does it without putting you to sleep. You WANT to go out and fish the second you finish reading it. I am sending my copy to a close friend, who wants to learn (her grown sons insist she is too old to learn!) And fellows, don't let the title fool you, this book works for you guys too (even if you hide the cover or pretend it is for your wife or girlfriend!)..." reviewed:""A must for women starting out in the sport As a new member of the fly-fishing community I was looking for a book that would shed some light on the world I was entering. I found this book to be very helpful and informative. Rikimaru's writing style is conversational, while still being educational. The book is filled with great tips and stories, as well as many appropriate illustrations. I lent this book to a friend, an avid fly fisherwoman, and she was very impressed with the comprehensive content of the book."
