3 out of 5 stars So many places, so little time...   October 21, 2005
 11 out of 12 found this review helpful

I was expecting to read location related fishing stories written by experienced anglers and was a little bit dissapointed to realize the interview based approach. There seems to be no real feelings in these short texts. Additionally, being a big fan of Mr. Atkinson's art, the size of the book really puts some strict constraints to his photos. Unfortunately.

Having said the above, I have to admit, that I don't regret the purchase of the book. I think that every actively travelling fly fisherman should have it. There is a lot of very valuable information in it, although, quite strongly biased in favor of the USA.

This is a beautiful book with many great ideas for an ideal trip. A little pricey and not something we will be able to do anytime soon. But if you like to dream big and save, these places are a possibility. The pictures are beautiful.


5 out of 5 stars A must for the Rich Fishing Addict   August 28, 2005
 13 out of 13 found this review helpful

If you have unlimited funds and time this book provides the backbone for a lifetime of fishing trips to exotic locales. Initially I bought the book as a gift for a flyfishing addict but it was such a great read that I ended up buying a second book for myself. The photography is outstanding and so far I've visited 2 of the places in the book and they both ranked as the top trips I'veever taken. 2 down and 48 more to go!!!


3 out of 5 stars Pretty Pictures, Lacking In Meet   June 28, 2004
 15 out of 25 found this review helpful

Flyfishing books seem to come in 3 forms, unfortunately.
1) How To - From Basic to Obscure tips
2) Stories/Biography's - Self Explanatory
3) Pretty Pictures
While there are exceptions ("Leaper", "Atlantic Salmon Chronicles" come to mind), this isn't one. It's in the Pretty Pictures category. And Pretty the Pictures Are! It shows you the same places the magazine always talk about, but in glorious color. Good for the coffee table I suppose.

I boutht this book for my father for Father's Day and he hasn't let it out of his sight since. He has read it cover to cover at least twice. Pictures beautiful and descriptions detailed. I think he is making his reservations for next year on Christmas Island. He was with us the week I gave it to him and he told everyone about the book. What a buy! I will have to get another copy if I want to read it -- it definitely will not be passed on throughout the rest of us fly fishermen in the family.
