Book excerpt: Trout Maverick is a full collection of the finest lore and theory taken from sixty years of fly fishing by one of America's most independent, challenging, and original angling writers.Len Wright's "heresies" are becoming well accepted, as they are brilliant fish-taking techniques. Some of these are: fishing a dry fly with a slight, upstream twitch; tying floating caddis imitations with hackle-fiber wings; dancing a dropper down-current; using extra-long fly rods; demonstrating that wet flies are superior to nymphs; and dozens of others. Everyone can learn from Len Wright's years of study and commitment - always to what works in fly fishing, not merely what is habit or even tradition. (61/4 X 91/4, 228 pages, illustrations)
