If you were to fall out of the sky and land on Wisconsin, you would be very likely to touch down within walking distance of a trout stream. Besides its free-flowing, cold trout water, Wisconsin offers many more miles of rivers and streams, as well as 15,000 inland lakes, hundreds of miles of coast along the inland seas of Michigan and Superior, and numerous spring and farm ponds that hold over 150 cold- and warmwater species of fish
So how do you negotiate this fly-angler's paradise? Chris Halla shows you how, covering: the 10,000 miles of trout water; species you'll encounter; 27 trout rivers, including the best tackle ,flies, techniques, lodging, shops, etc.; tackle; basic fly selections; reading water; hatch information; extensive list of regional resources; and more. Wisconsin leads the nation in stream miles designated as 'high-quality' waters. This is due to the state's tradition of protecting and restoring habitat for naturally reproducing trout. Maybe you haven't thought of Wisconsin when planning your fly-fishing trips, but after you read this book you'll see the excitement and variety of Wisconsin fly fishing.
