Synopsis This book is about the information that is needed to catch fish but more importantly it is about adopting the right mind set to help us be more successful fly fishers. There are many factors to be considered when trying to catch trout on a fly, weather, state of the water, what the trout are feeding on – the list is endless.

All the information is freely available yet some anglers consistently catch more fish than others and it is how they think that makes the difference.
