Long Trail Trout: Backcountry Fly Fishing Adventures from Vermont to Montana, and Beyond

By Peter Shea

Grab your fly rod; grab your backpack; and in some cases grab your sides with laughter, as angling author Peter Shea transports you to some of the finest wilderness locations in North America. From a short jaunt along Vermont's Long Trail to Labrador's most remote mountain range, the author has followed a passion for wilderness trout. Chasing golden trout, high in Montana's Beartooth's or Wyoming's Wind River Range, backpacking for cutthroats in the vast Bob Marshall Wilderness or the most remote corner of Yellowstone Park, Shea shares his stories and experiences, providing an inspiration for your own trip or armchair fishing adventure. Long Trail Trout's storylines often drift away from the fishing itself, and focus on the characters and odd situations that can populate a forty-year career of backcountry trout fishing. An arrest, a honeymoon gone awry, bear fears, and a life-threatening hurricane, are among the themes that take their turn in a personal anthology that is a fun and easy read.
