A Wonderful Flyfishing Primer

Scott Richmond's The Pocket Gillie is an excellent refresher on essential flyfishing skills. He writes with knowledge, economy and humor. The text has good, useful artwork as well. A very good little book.

A Must Have

I can't say enough good things about this book. Once you have purchased your fly rod and reel this is THE book to have. Has a lot of good entomology drawings. Scott has a good sense of humor. Highly recommended.

first rate fly fishing primer.

I have read many books on flyfishing and I have found that Scott Richmond`s The Pocket Gillie is by far the best flyfishing primer I have seen. It is very well written. His chapter called Hard Times in a Bugs Life gives much insight into basic entomology to help one choose the correct pattern and presentation,which I think, is the essence of flyfishing. The book is economically written and fits in a fly vest pocket. I highly reccomend it.
