Modern Streamers for Trophy Trout

New Techniques, Tactics, and Patterns

Bob Linsenman and Kelly Galloup
Foreword by Jerry Dennis

This modern, all-encompassing manual on the art of streamer fishing teaches new techniques for catching trophy-sized trout on a fly.

Streamers are the most effective of all fly patterns for the seduction of large trout, because they imitate the look and behavior of the smaller fish these trophies feed on. Sooner or later, every angler seeking the thrill of landing a trout over 20 inches--a dream fish for most--will need to understand the particular art of streamer fishing.

Included in this guide:

  • New information on the feeding behavior of large trout and what it means for the angler

  • Detailed, illustrated casting and fishing techniques for a variety of conditions

  • Advice on netting and releasing trout safely, as well as photographing them

  • Color photographs of new and classic patterns, with complete tying recipes

    •

    "Modern Streams for Trophy Trout is fresh, clear, revolutionary, and probably a little dangerous. It will change the way you think."
    —Jerry Dennis, author of The River Home
