Reseña del editor:

Streamer fishing, especially for trout in rivers, is far too often overlooked and underutilized. Few anglers truly understand the rugged art of successful streamer fishing. Too many miss out on the slashes of silver darting through the water, chasing their black Woolly Bugger, and never feel the heart-stopping take of a huge brown trout as it attacks a rabbit fur streamer. "The Orvis [registered] Pocket Guide to Streamer Fishing" can help, adding to the fisherman's repertoire the art of the streamer, with valuable advice on why the big trout go for the streamers, reading streamer-friendly waters, streamer techniques, tools of the trade, and proven patterns widely available at fly shops. Author Patrick Straub, a guide for ten years, talks about casting philosophies, hand positioning, how to add line speed, the secrets of the tuck cast, how to master the skip cast, and gives advice on un snagging streamers. There are tips on retrieves, drifting techniques, fighting big fish, and even a few hints on getting that big hook out of your thumb. Straub takes a close look at the most popular streamer patterns, such as the Woolly Bugger, the Muddler Minnow, the Mickey Finn, and the Zonker, among others.
