About the Book
"In any definition of fly fishing, there has to be room to explore and to discover new ways of doing things. For me new knowledge is at the heart and soul of fly fishing." -John Judy, from Slack Line Strategies for Fly Fishing

In Slack Line Strategies for Fly Fishing, John Judy makes the case for slack line casting as an invaluable approach to fly fishing that all anglers can use to improve their chances of success. The book covers the basics, such as rod selection and water current pattern identification, as well as advanced strategies, such as how to locate and land the elusive steelhead.
