The methods described will enable anglers to catch fish no matter where they are in the world. Fish are the same, with few slight variations in habit, around the globe. Over fifty years of fishing experience have taught me that the knowledge I bring to a new lake or pond is more important than fancy tackle. Knowing the fish species and applying proven techniques have enabled me to catch fish when others have failed." To those fishermen who have to make precious the time they have astream, this book should prove invaluable. Aziz uses a number of unique tactics and lures to catch fish. He focuses most of his efforts on fly-fishing, fly tying, spin fishing and bait fishing. Many of the flies that are illustrated and described in this book are of local New England origin and have never before been presented in any national publication. They have proven their worth over time and will improve the success rate of even the most experienced angler. Novices and experts alike will benefit from the wisdom and the secrets that Roger Aziz has accumulated over his long and distinguished career.
