I bought the book in mid-February and read it over a three day period. There was a wealth of useful information particularly describing correct depth, presentation, rigging configurations and other tactics. The following weekend I went out with the expressed intent to use the author's techniques and was very successful, catching 8 rainbows, cutbows and a couple of fat browns. Maybe a good day anyway but was armed with some very good pointers.

This is one of those books I really enjoyed reading because of the wealth of information contained. Nymphing is not something very many people do, so it makes sense to have a look. In doing so, and applying some of the "know how" I caught 5 rainbows this weekend.. I usually fish in lakes so I was curious what he would have to say about this subject as relates to lakes, and believe it or not there was useful information. There is also advice on choosing the right fly line for a given situation. I never knew that in lakes a 1-2 ips sinking line was the ideal until I read it here. He also explains why this is so very well. There is a section on choosing which fly that tells you why - this was a first for me. (hint: its not just that it looks like food) All in all a short read with lots of information. I highly recommend it. (And no, I'm not related to the guy!) - Migs
