If you are interested in streamer fishing, you need to read this book. It seems like in more recent years streamer fishing has become this edgy side to fly fishing. You think of flat brimmed hats quasi skater looking dudes who are using flies the names of which you would never repeat around your wife or mother. This is probably fueled by the exciting promise of potential returns of large fish and an adrenalin rush. The first streamer book of substance I came across was written by Joseph D. Bates, Streamers & Bucktails The Big Fish Flies with original copyright 1950 and most recent 1979. Over the years I came across articles in magazines and shared tips from other fisherman but never really found a one stop reference guide. The next real text of substance which started to unravel the mystery a little more was written by Kelley Gallup, Modern Streamers for Trophy Trout, 2004, which I think reignited the streamer enthusiasm and introduced some truly original concepts and an out the door system. George has done a great job compiling some of the best modern streamers into his pattern section of this book and is a great go to reference.
If you are looking for an across the board streamer book that will help you become a more versatile streamer fisherman this is the right book for you. I really appreciated his breakdown of small, medium and large streamers and explained in detail scenarios in which you could apply what he has learned to your local waters. He does an excellent job as well explaining “tweaks” to leader and sinking line combinations to reach optimal depths for presentation. I like that he explains in great detail upstream, across stream, down and across stream, and downstream presentations and the flies that are more specifically designed for each of those scenarios.
