       About the Cover

      An angler patiently fishes the crystal-clear waters of the Fall River. Big brown and rainbow trout make good use of the cover provided them by the numerous deadfalls and undercuts along this pristine central Oregon spring creek. The slow, slick water and large fish present a challenge even to skilled fly fishers. Photo by Brian O’Keefe.

       The No Nonsense Creed

      The best way to go fly fishing is to find out a little something about a water, then just go there. Experimentation, trial-and-error, wrong turns, surprises, self-reliance, and new discoveries, even in familiar waters, are what make the memories. The next best way is to learn enough from a local to save you from going too far wrong. You still find the water on your own, and it still feels as if you were the first to do so.

      This is the idea for our unique No Nonsense fly fishing series. Our books reveal little hush-hush information, yet they give all you need to find what will become your own secret places.

      Painstakingly pared down, our writing is elegantly simple. Each title offers a local fly fishing expert’s candid tour of his or her favorite fly fishing waters. Nothing is oversold or out of proportion. Everything is authentic, especially the discoveries and experiences you get after using our books. In his outstanding book Jerusalem Creek, Ted Leeson echoes our idea: “Discovering a new trout stream is a wonderful thing, and even if its whereabouts are common knowledge, to come upon the place yourself for the first time is nonetheless true discovery.”

      No Nonsense Fly Fishing Guidebooks give you a quick, clear understanding of the essential information for fly fishing a region’s most outstanding waters. The authors are highly experienced and qualified local fly fishers. The maps are tidied versions of the author’s sketches.

       Dedication

      I dedicate this guide to my wife, Delores, and my five children, Brad, Bruce, Susan, Brett, and Shelley. Under duress at times, they’ve accompanied me on numerous fishing excursions.

      I also dedicate this guide to my many fishing friends.

      They have taught me the fine points of reading water, casting, and selecting flies; the necessity of good equipment; and how to camp in perfect misery on a beautiful, warm summer day.
