How to find trout when there is no hatch June 2, 2006
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is another excellent resource from Tom Rosenbauer. What do you do when there is no hatch? He covers a little bit of everything--streamers, dries, wet flies, and nymphs. It's a nice follow-up volume to his Guide to Fly Fishing and his Reading the Stream book. As with his other books, he writes clearly and practically. You should read it, then later re-read it to remind yourself what you should have done when you didn't catch anything. Tight lines!

THIS BOOK IS A MUST HAVE. I HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE TO INTRODUCE MANY OF MY FRIENDS TO THE SPORT OF FLYFISHING. I HAVE PURCHASED AND GIVEN AWAY A BOOK TO EACH OF MY LAST FIVE FRIENDS. THEY ALL LOVE IT. GREAT NIGHTSTAND BOOK FOR READING AGAIN AND AGAIN!

Any book by Tom Rosenbauer is usually excellent, but this book could have been much smaller. If this book had the size of Orvis' Pocket Guides, it would have been fantastic. Great read and great information nonetheless. Highly recommended.
Tips on finding Trout October 26, 2001
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
There is no other activity that I know of that can lead to more serenity and more frustration, simultaneously, than trout fishing. You have to first find the fish, who show up in the most innocuous places. You then have to figure out what they're eating. And always, it's a *little* bit comforting to know that you are not alone in this trial. Misery sometimes does love company. But misery also loves some real good advice, as well!
In that, Tom Rosenbauer does a superior job of teaching how to go to a piece of water, and start the monumental task of prospecting ( like a miner ) that water for the stealthy trout that (probably) inhabit therein. Two things begin to happen when reading the book. First, you begin to understand why you haven't found fish before. Second, you begin to understand that part of the enjoyment of trout fishing, is *in* the looking itself, whether or not you actually succeed in finding a fish that particular day.In the opinion of one who has just really begun this journey into fishing for trout, this book is excellent!
