Mike Fong's new book

Hi All,



I just received a person copy from Christine Fong of Mike Fong's new book,
"Ten Best Western Flyfishing Destination" published by Frank Amato
Publications.



It has Clark Canyon Reservoir, the Dean River, Eagle Lake, the Elk River,
the Green River, the Lower Sacramento River, the Lower Williamson River, the
Missouri River, the South Fork of the Boise River and the Upper Rogue River.



With their exceptional photography, great maps and wonderful information,
this book will help many fly fishers to enjoy some of the top places for
trout and steelhead in western North America. For $19.95 is it a real value.



Ask for it at your local fly shop.

Yea, but its a long paddle back to the restroom...


Missouri River,

Well, yea, 20 years ago, when I had it all to myself...

I fished the Missouri once about 15 years ago and I thought that was early
on? Wow.......you lucky dog.

Never made it to Clark Canyon but heard it had some hot fish?

It helped that I lived on the Missouri, but I didn't even know how good I
had it....

I started fishing the Missouri in the mid 70's, it was open year round, and
as long as you were fishing sometime other than the general stream season,
you literally had the river *all* *to* *yourself* - miles and miles of prime
flywater, heavy hatches, and *really large trout*...

Any local pressure was mostly bait flingers, going after the shark sized
Browns that lived at the base of Holter Lake, feeding on perch puree
(turbine sushi).

Even after the general opener, pressure was light, very light...and you
could have entire runs all to yourself no matter the hatch or season (not
one single drift boat all week end day).

Rightly or wrongly, I guess it was Gary Lafontaine that was most responsible
for shinning the spotlight on the upper 'Mo, it's true the river needed
friends, but somedays I think they are loving it to death.

Wow, sounds great Skwala.

There are some interesting choices in that book, I'll have to check it out.
