The perfect companion for fly fishers new or experienced.From the pages: "As the years go by, I clearly remember the fishing and the scenery, and I have my old fishing logs for reference. In time, the focal point of an adventure may fade to a particular fish, vision of landscape, or a special wildlife encounter; the reason for being there. A fish is sometimes memorable due to size, but is more often remembered because of the circumstances, the particular challenge, the color and appearance, or a special location on a stream."
From the foreword: "As you read this book, you will be streamside with him (David). In these pages you will find stories, experiences, and wisdom. These have been earned by David and belong to him. After reading this book, they will belong to you as well."
About the Author: Stuver grew up on a ranch in Montana when "...one could still ride all day without crossing
a fence." He began fly fishing in his early twenties, and found it both therapeutic,
and as a method to explore Montana's wild places. He spent his career with the Dept. of
Agriculture, and developed a keen eye for entomology, hydrology and land-use ethics.
His writing contains both technical and scientific components, plus the joy and humor
of streamside companions. He has lived his entire life in Montana, and currently resides
near the sparkling waters of Big Spring Creek.
