A comprehensive guide to fly-fishing for trout and grayling, using a minimalistic approach
Exploring leader-to-hand and leader-only techniques with nymphs and dry flies, this guide pushes the boundaries of the sport. The established dogma of the old school is questioned, reaching the limits of what is possible with the conventional approach, while presentation based technique, which is radically changing the single-handed fly rod sport, particularly on rivers, is explained. Both the fly line-dominated Western style and the Japanese fixed-line style are considered, converging into the leader-only style. Watercraft, techniques, tackle, and flies are explained in depth, with consideration of both rivers and lakes. Focusing on fish rather than on the fly, casting, or tackle, has resulted in a form of fly-fishing that is particularly effective and efficient. This book is ideal for anyone interested in the many benefits of this ground-breaking approach to the sport.
Jeremy Lucas is one of the most internationally recognized figures in the contemporary sport of fly-fishing for trout and grayling. A former England international in all disciplines - both river and still water - he has been European open champion and a world championship individual bronze medallist, while also winning team gold, silver and bronze medals in European and world championships. He is also one of only a few anglers ever to have won both the loch-style and the rivers home internationals. Jeremy is qualified by the Game Angling Instructors Association to APGAI level and has guided and coached throughout Britain and Europe. He has also been the coach for the Australian national fly-fishing team for world championships in Poland, Italy and Slovenia.
