Great for getting lost September 15, 2001 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Other reviews address the poor quality of the writing and textual information in this book. Let me bring up the issue of the next to useless maps that accompany this text. The detail is about the same as those maps the rental car agencies pass out. Forget finding those back roads to the best spots, those roads don't exist on the maps in this book. If you insist on buying this book, also buy some topos and visit local shops so you don't wast time driving down a road to nowhere.
This book is good for a campfire July 26, 2000 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
Taking this book to Montana was a complete waste of time. Thomas misses seasonal patterns on some of the major creeks. Some of the map diagrams are misleading in terms of access and, in the case of Yaak River wrong in direction. It diagrams hwy 200 running up the Kootenai instead of hwy 2. Granted, you will always get better info just going into a Missoula, Bozeman, or Kalispall shop, but I found information in this book just too inconsistent then what the locals know.
Poor book written by an angler that does not live in MONTANA April 27, 2000 7 out of 14 found this review helpful
This book is an insult to the great fishery of Montana, Greg Thomas lives in Idaho and has fished very little in Montana! He is trying to be a writer on fly fishing, but should give up and enjoy the sport. His attitude is an insult to the sport
One of the best Montana Flyfishing guides I have ever read November 6, 1998 John Durfee (dkcyn@tco.net) (Corning, California) 17 out of 19 found this review helpful
I have been venturing to Montana every year for the last ten years to visit friends and family. I always spend at least two weeks traveling the country side with my drift boat looking for great places to fish. This year I happened on Greg's guide while in Ennis, Montana. The book led me to some of the best fishing I have ever experienced in the state. The guide has all of the information needed to plan an entire trip from scratch. It is easy to read and understand. Next year I am planning on going for six weeks!
