Without giving away favorite holes do you guys have any suggestions?


Massachusetts Council of Trout Unlimited publishes a good guide called
'Flyfishing for Trout in Massachusetts'. I think there are a couple of
commercial books on the topic too. However, I'm very active in Mass. TU and
think their book is not only good information, but a good cause. 80% of the
proceeds of sales from Chapters or members goes toward conservation work in
our State.

I have one remaining copy of the original printing from 1984 - it's a
collector's item and I would let it go for a decent amount. If you're
interested, make me an offer.

I have two copies of the second printing (I forget the date offhand). Cover
price is $15 but it's really worth $20 because we spent too much to have
that printing done. I would let you buy a copy for $20 plus $5 postage and
handing.

The new edition just started shipping a month ago. I don't have any of
those on hand but can get my hands on some within a week, Cover price on
those is $20. The new edition has some editorial content changes, revised
formatting and artwork by Alan James Robinson

The new book is available from any TU Chapter in the State including the
Squanatissit Chapter in your neighborhood. It is also available in
Massachusetts fly shops (Mass. TU only gets $8 of every copy if you buy
retail so I would suggest buying it direct if you want to support the
cause).

Email me if you're interested.
