schools around the world, is now available to the book

in a world of technical minutiae that is almost impenetrable
to the beginner in fly fishing. Through detailed instructions
and dozens of precise photographs and diagrams, he clearly
dissects fly casting into understandable and executable
steps to take the raw beginner from piles of line on
the ground to graceful loops in the air..

Description from Amazon.Com
In this comprehensive book, Lefty Kreh explains that
the art of presentation is much more than dropping the
fly in the best position--it also involves the clothes
you wear, the methods you use to rig your tackle, how
and where you approach the fish, the types of fly lines
and reels you use, the direction of the light, the type
of cover, and the retrieval method used, among other
factors.
