Finding bonefish from a skiff & while wading are thoroughly covered, as is catch & release. Details on the bonefish’s environment & his food provide the essential background, & you’ll learn what tackle & flies to take & how to cast efficiently in the flats. 114 Color photos, 10 illus, 4 paintings; 8.5x11 inches, 208 pgs.
