Summary: the quiet sport
Comment:
One of the endearing features of the monthly magazine FLY FISHERMAN is its tag line: 'the leading magazine of the quiet sport'.
'Not a bad moniker for the anthology of fisherman's travelogue, skills-and-techniques instruction, environmental issues, and fly fishing news (yes, there *is* such a thing) that is packed into this publication. This reviewer recently took his first steps towards fulfilling the life long dream of learning to fly fish by exploring Montana's Big Horn river with fisherman-philosopher Bob Krumm. I hooked some gorgeous trout but I'm the one who got truly hooked.
I'm already the new owner of my first fly rod and reel. There's no turning back now. FLY FISHERMAN will go with me.
The beauty of this magazine and the 'quiet' sportsmen and women whose lives it nourishes is the breadth of their appreciation for the fishing experience. It's not only about the fish. If you are one of the fortunates who knows what a midge is, you probably didn't know how *much* there is to know--and report--about midges. The same can be said for access rights to rivers, water quality, human efforts to improve streams, and the art-and-science that go into catching--and usually releasing--intelligent trout.
It's a very cool magazine and, for the price, quite a catch.

Summary: comprehensive
Comment: Fly Fisherman is a very good general interest fly fishing magazine; that is, there's a little something for every angler. Generally featuring a coupla destination features and very thorough tactics/gear features, Fly Fisherman does a good job covering the bases. This is generally the world of trouting, but there is generally a non-trout feature as well, whether bonefishing, salmon/steelhead or some exotic species, Fly Fisherman does it's honest best. The art and illustrations are usually quite good and while the writing doesn't sparkle, it gets the job done, in a rather soldierly manner.
