Book Synopsis Fly Fishing Book of Revelation by : Jay Nicholas
Download or read book Fly Fishing Book of Revelation written by Jay Nicholas and published by . This book was released on 2014-12-05 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fly Fishing Book of Revelation isn't your ordinary, fact-based, reference guide to language bandied about by fly anglers. Nope. This is the Director's Cut glossary, an exposition that will shine a light on the meaning, origin, folklore, etiquette, and nuance of words, phrases, commercial products, concepts and morality permeating the culture and practice of fly fishing, fly tying, and the life of men and women who fish. Fly Fishing Book of Revelation is interpreter, road map, and a page-turner that dares to tell the truth; destined to be judged cult-classic. Book of Revelation will help normal people understand what is really going on in the heads of fly anglers. Normal people, as defined here, means persons not afflicted with the fishing fever and includes girlfriends, boyfriends, spouses, bosses, co-workers, children, brothers, sisters, parents, cell mates, parole officers, attorneys, mental health professionals, therapists, HR specialists, financial advisors, neighbors and the like.Are you dating a fly angler, wondering what is going on in that guy or gal's brain? Perhaps you've been married to a fly fisher for 20 years and still don't understand half the stuff your spouse says about fishing or fly tying? Maybe you are a teenager with a fly angler/fly tyer father, and you're concerned that you might have inherited a crazy gene from dad. Are you a boss with avid fly anglers under your supervision? Do you wonder if you should just fire every one of 'em and get it over with? The therapist treating a fly fisher for OCD should read this book, because behaviors that you might have thought pathological are quite normal, for fly fishers/fly tyers. You could be anyone who fishes anywhere and enjoy this book: any guy or gal who plunks worms for bluegill; minnows for crappie; chicken gizzards for catfish; swings Intruders in Great Lakes tributaries; or throws lazer-tight loops into a headwind on a Florida tarpon flat. Fly anglers in the Pacific Northwest assuredly aren't the only people who will find wisdom and more than a few laughs in these pages. Book of Revelation will shine a light on the everyday madness cluttering a fly angler/tyer's head. The definitions, rants, lectures, and speculations are as wild as any you'll ever find in a fishing reference book. "Book of Revelation" defines over fourteen hundred terms and is accompanied by several hundred Nicholas original sketches. Judging from dual Forewords by Mikhail Skopets (Fly Fishing Russia) and Randy Stetzer (Flies - The Best One Thousand); as well as reviews by John Larison (Northwest of Normal, Holding Lies), Tim Rajeff (International fly tying champion), and Rob Russell (Modern Steelhead Flies), "Book of Revelation" is a must read for anyone remotely involved with fishing, and especially for fly fishers and their loved ones.Look forward to learning about what a fly fisher thinks when he or she hears terms like amnesia, boobies, bucket, bugger barn, cheeter, dink, pull, fighting butt, fish taco, high sticking, line rub, milt, magic head, notty girls, man room, Nymo, player, Seal Dri, remorse, romp, sex, snarf, stinger, TV tray, renegade, whistler, yap, zinger, and more.
Download or read book Fishing written by Henry Beard and published by Workman Publishing. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most popular books ever published on the art of angling looks irreverently at the fishing life, from hook-"An irritating but highly reliable device used to quickly and precisely locate the position of one's thumb at the bottom of a tackle box"--to line--"Length of long, thin, strong synthetic material stretched between two fishing rods and joined at its midpoint by a pair of linked hooks"--to sinker--"A lead weight in any of a variety of shapes and sizes attached to lines or terminal tackle to facilitate the speedy disposal of unwanted lures."
Book Synopsis The Fly-Fisher's Companion by : Darrel Martin
Download or read book The Fly-Fisher's Companion written by Darrel Martin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book grew from the author's desire to consolidate the many teachings that he uses in his popular fly-fishing classes. It is a textbook that includes concise and selective commentary on tackle, casting, tactics, flies and fly tying, and other related topics. The word "companion" derives from “one with whom we share our bread.” After more than fifty years of fly fishing, the author would like to sit at the streamside and share these observations with readers. Here is the knowledge and understanding that he wished he had when he began fly fishing. While the handmade steel hooks, horsehair lines, and carefully crafted wooden loop-rods have long given way to nylon and fluorocarbon leaders, multipiece graphite rods, and synthetic lines, the fundamentals of the craft have remained basically the same. In The Fly-Fisher’s Companion, the author carefully goes through all the basics, all within the context of modern fly-fishing situations. This companion may serve as a foundation or a supplement for fly-fishing instruction. It may also be a reminder or reference for the more experienced angler. As a retired educator, the author recognizes that instructors present material in different ways. Instructors may wish to select only those topics that fit their syllabus while omitting others. Over the years, these instructions and commentary have produced a host of competent fly fishers. We all learn by image, word, and action. Since the sepia days of Walton and Cotton, fly fishing has been an enthralling sport. And, as this companion hopefully makes clear, there is more to fishing than fish. There is an infinite amount of pleasure in learning a skill and doing it well. Skyhorse Publishing is proud to publish a broad range of books for fishermen. Our books for anglers include titles that focus on fly fishing, bait fishing, fly-casting, spin casting, deep sea fishing, and surf fishing. Our books offer both practical advice on tackle, techniques, knots, and more, as well as lyrical prose on fishing for bass, trout, salmon, crappie, baitfish, catfish, and more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to publishing books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked by other publishers and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
