A Streamside Guide for New Zealand Anglers
This book is based on the premise that the fishing fly that will give you the greatest chance of success is the one that most closely represents what your trout is actually feeding on.
Without overwhelming the angler with scientific detail, Keith Draper describes various nymphs, beetles, flies, midges etc, each illustrated with delightful little colour paintings. Alongside these he shows the fly that best matches the insect.
He gives advice on how best to present the fly so that it mimics the prey in action as well as in appearance, offers tips for home fly-tiers and mixes it all in with some delightful anecdotes. A charming little book it can not only be tucked in with your fishing tackle, it can also be read for sheer delight.
