Not just for Trout Fishermen!

An EXCELLENT book! Explains putting together and using a fly and clear plastic bubble set-up so anyone can add dry or wet flies to their fishing arsenal without having to master the use of a fly rod. 30 years ago, my family went fishing in Yellowstone Lake. The guy at the marina told us to use dry flies and a plastic bubble. But he never showed us how to effectively rig the set-up. I still have that plastic bubble in my tackle box and now can actually use it. I fish for bluegill and they love insects. I have a fly rod, but get bored with using it very quickly as I just am not that good at it. I prefer my spin-casting rods. Using the clear plastic bubble will allow me to hunt for my "Bull Gills" in a new way. Even though the discussion in the book is entirely aimed toward the pursuit of trout, all of the material can easily be applied to bluegill, bass, or any other fish that goes after bugs, worms, minnows, or crayfish (I think that covers about all species!). Its a quick read, very succinct, and well-written. I highly recommend it to any fisherman who wants to use flies and poppers with spinning, baitcasting, or spincasting equipment.
