Colorado fly fishing is huge. As one would expect, there are no shortage of fly fishing guides. But whereas other guides focus on particular waters, Colorado Flyfishing is organized by region, centering on locations out of which fly fishers can home base. In other words, this book is organized the same way that people organize their fly fishing trips. Authors and fishing buddies, Mark and Mac, take us on a whirlwind summer tour of Colorado's prime fly fishing grounds, imparting wit and insight to the journey and the sport. They share with us what fishing in Colorado means to them, and they also share where to find the best fishing and amenities in the state. Features luminous full color photography.
