Guide To Fishing West Canada Creek And Its Tributaries Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For many fishermen, the sport isn't so much about catching buckets of fish as understanding the water and the factors that contribute to the piscine life within it. This short, micro-published book adds vital information to that ideal, at least with regard to West Canada Creek, one of the top trout streams in New York.
There's a short, precis-style history of the river and its fisheries and a section-by-section rundown of the most popular and/or productive areas of the river and the streams that feed it. More importantly, there's solid advice about river-reading and fish behavior, gleaned from several life-long West Canada fishermen and the author's own long experience on the river. It contains special advice for fishing with bait, lures, and flies, including a consensus on the top choices for each.
The writing is clear and concise, but it could use more editing for grammatical errors. Likewise the maps are in a confusing order and are difficult to use, but they provide the relevant information well enough to use them with supplemental maps.
The best thing about the Guide is the author's efforts to dig deeper into the river's fishing lore and to explore its upper reaches and smaller tributaries. It's much more than a list of the most crowded fishing spots: its insights open the whole river to the angler's imagination.

A field guide to fishing one of New York's top ten trout streams. Features 96 pages of information, photographs, illustrations, charts and maps designed to help anglers catch monster trout and river smallmouths --- on lures, flies and bait. Twenty pages of maps pinpoint fishing hotspots, public fishing areas, parking areas, highways, roads, foot trails, bridges, dams, campsites and sport shops. Although the author has more than 30 years experience fishing this 76-mile long stream, he consulted old journals and reports, walked and talked with old-timers and young outdoor adventurers who know the water well, picked the brains of fisheries biologists, and even took a helicopter flight to gain a unique perspective of this 76-mile upstate river.
