Good Fishing in the Adirondacks, 2nd Ed.

Dennis Aprill, Editor

The size of the Adirondacks is staggering: 6 million acres of woodland and mountainside generously endowed with pristine lakes, rivers, and streams. As if that weren't enough to keep an angler's spirits up, the region is bordered to the east by Lake Champlain and to the north by the Saint Lawrence River. Sixteen experienced local fishermen and outdoor columnists contributed their knowledge to create this trusted guide to fishing a spectacular region.

Includes:

  • Fly-fishing the fabled Battenkill, Ausable, and other destination trout rivers

  • Where to stalk landlocked salmon or find the best ice fishing

  • Backpacking fishing trips in the central mountains

  • Fishing Lake Champlain and the Saint Lawrence River

  • Flies, lures, and bait for many species
  • "A treasure trove of firsthand knowledge of the area . . . solid clues on where and how to fish and for what."
