Amazon.com Review
Sheridan Anderson, self-described "foe of the work ethic," has put together an illustrated guide to "the art of fly fishing on moving water" that one must see to fully appreciate. There is much wisdom in this introduction to a difficult sport, all presented in a large cartoon format. Like William Nealy's Kayak, Anderson takes advantage of his multimedia approach to explain aspects of fly-fishing, through both words and drawings, that might otherwise be lost on the neophyte. All this is conveyed with a good sense of humor, something beginning fly-fishers need in abundance.

5 out of 5 stars The best book on the topic   January 10, 2008
Thaddeus W. Taylor (Bishop, CA)
I live in Bishop, CA which is a flyfishers paradise. This book made flyfishing simple, easy to understand and is the best single work on the topic ever written. I say that while adimiting that I was a friend of the late, great Sheridan Mullholland Andreas Anderson and I miss him. Don't miss this book. I have just ordered a copy for a flyfisher beginer.

I am a newbie at the sport and bought this after seeing it highly recommended on several group discussions. But I was disappointed. The book is very short. It is written in comic book style. I don't have a problem with this, but I thought it was limiting.

Unless you are a extreme newbie, I can't recommend it. And if you are, go with LL Bean's book by Dave Whitlock.

Older book timeless in its message and written in a style that makes flyfishing easy for anyone who want to pursue the sport.


5 out of 5 stars Very helpful for beginners....a classic.   April 3, 2007

For me, this book was instrumental in developing good fly fishing techniques and habits. It is entertaining, easy to read, and technically accurate. Filled with highly animated comics, the book is a work of art.....very carefully designed.

I recommend this book for any beginning fly fishing angler. It is much less intimidating that other manuals and really is a delight to read...rich with information.
