I fished with him...he knows how to teach

Neale is a great teacher and the casting and fish spotting techniques he has in the book are excellent for the beginning and experienced angler. I bought the book after I had spent a day fishing with Neale on the Missouri River out of Wolf Creek Montana. I purchased the book to have a reference for review of a lot of what he taught me that day. He is a great guide and a great teacher. The book is an excellent background if you ever fish from a drift boat. He knows flyfishing and what you need to do to improve your skills.
