Fly Fishing the Mountain Lakes (Summer of Discovery Series)

I loved this book! Gary is a great writer and makes his books full of well researched,sound information. In this small volume he tells you where the lakes are (they really exist where he says-I checked topos!) and challenges you to go! Wonderful, fun book!!

Excellent

This book mixed enteraining stories with valuable information on Gary's years of observation of the behavior of trout in high country lakes. I have read numerous books and articles regarding techniques to use on high country lakes, but have rarely found such valuable information as revealed in this book. In fact, I have read this book twice over the last several months in an effort to soak up all the information, and plan to read it again before the local mountain lakes start to thaw. I would strongly recommend this book to beginning and experienced anglers alike.

Very informative and fun.

Great reading for the flyfisher who enjoys the high country or likes to get away from river crowds. Lots of fun new methods to try out. Trying to figure out where I can keep my pack goat.

Makes me want to fish mountain lakes

I've never really enjoyed fishing mountain lakes. With a couple of memorable exceptions, I usually find it quite boring to slam the water from the shore or scoot around in a float-tube. But this book makes me think I was probably going about this business all wrong and that maybe mountain lakes can be as interesting to fish as mountain streams. I'm anxious for spring ice-out to roll around so I can give it another try with the knowledge gleaned from this book.Gary's books are always interesting reading, and the mix of talk about goats, dogs, and mountain characters makes this one fun as well.

Outstanding Information with a story book style.

This was the easist book I have every read. I enjoyed the way Gary mixed stories with science. I rearly read an entire book in three days but I found myself reading when I should have been doing house chores. I also appreciate the mans love for animals. It's a great book and I look forward in reading it again - and to the next book in the series - Thanks Gary
