Killroy's rating:
from the book cover: Reading the water is a comprehensive sourcebook to the water needs of trout. It will teach you all you need to know about stream structure, trout food, and trout lies so that you can improve the time you spend on the stream by concentrating on the most likely places to find fish. You will learn how to identify, read, and fish: riffles; pools; freestone streams; pocket water; runs; spring creeks; mountain creeks; flats; tailwater; meadow streams; banks.

Killroy: You've tied a ton of flies, you're actually getting good at it. Now what? Can't seem to catch very many fish? Any fish? Well... here is the "fish stalking" manual. Learn how and where to find the fish. Of course, remember the old saying: "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink." In fly fishing fish are the horses, your flies are the water, but with the knowledge from this book, some very buggy looking flies, and some old-fashioned luck, you will be a master fly-fisher in no time. This book is a must have.
