<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The magic and majesty of America's greatest western fly-fishing rivers. <i>Flywater</i> brings us to the iconic creeks, springs, freestone rivers, and tailwaters that make the American West the world's premier destination for fly fishing. Grant McClintock's first book struck a chord with fishermen, and fifteen years later he takes the reader back to these fabulous places--from the storied Henry's Fork to the Yellowstone to the Thompson River in British Columbia. With extraordinary new photography and wisdom, McClintock revisits these home waters and discovers countless others as well. <i>Flywater</i> is a gallery of moments and places. From Idaho and Montana to Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia, McClintock's rich photography of trout and steelhead waters surrounded by beautiful Western landscapes creates a compelling journey that the reader, whether fisherman or non-fisherman, will thoroughly enjoy. For the serious fly fisherman, this is an album of shared experiences. For the uninitiated, it is an artfully crafted guidebook to an exotic new world that really does exist on the streams and rivers of the American West.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>There are books and there are books and this is a feast for the eyes, informative, intriguing, invaluable.
