 Best of the Pack June 27, 1998

There are a handful of guidebooks to Yellowstone waters, but this one has become my favorite. It is very well organized, and concise.
There is at least a paragraph dedicated to every named piece of water in the park (and up to 6 pages for more important rivers). Accompanying the text are easily scannable icons representing the fish species in the water, type of access (car or hike), bear warnings, etc.
Although I never trust hatch charts, the ones in this book are as good as you can expect. And who today could be better at suggesting flies for Yellowstone waters than Craig Mathews, the inventor of several of the most productive patterns used in the park today? I've seen Craig in the Park fishing several times, this man knows what he's doing.
My only improvement would be for more detailed maps, but you should really have topos for any area you're going to hike into anyway.
If you're headed to Yellowstone to fish for the first time, study this book & you'll improve your odds of having a great time. If you've fished the Park many times before and want ideas for new places to try, I can't think of a better way to find them than with this book and a good map.
THE book for fly-fishing Yellowstone....PERIOD! June 4, 1999

Three years ago I bought this book from Craig Matthews at his store and everytime I go to Yellowstone I STILL use it. Of all the fly fishing books I have about where to fish this one is the best by far.Craig tells in DETAIL about no only WHERE the fish are, but what to use at that time of year and what fish are in the water. If you are planning on fishing in Yellowstone..then this is your book! Scott Cash Thompson

This book is easy to use and extreamly useful. It splits the park up into four regions, tells you where (or not to) fish, and where to start looking in your flybox. I have used it the last 3 or 4 years and will use it as long as I vacation in Yellowstone. I have looked at several books on fishing in Yellowstone and this is by far the best that I have found.

i have taken this book to me 3 years in a row that i've gone to yellowstone, and it has shown me where the fish are. This is the best fly-fishing guide i have ever seen. If you plan on fly-fishing Yellowstone seriously i highly reccomend this book.
The "Go to Book" on Fishing in the Park July 25, 2007

The "Go to Book" for fishing in the Park. Has all the information one needs to find "backcountry waters" as well as the "hotspots". I've fished Montanna for the last 7 years, but have never fished in the Park until last year. This book cut the learning curve by a considerable margin. Not only does he unleash his considerable knowledge of the "spots". He is very complete in informing the angler of the certain flies and times of the year to use them. I read this book practically every time I sit down to the flybench. Just to jog my memory on what to prepare for the coming trip. I wsih I had bought this years ago and fished the park alot earlier in my years. Could have cut alot of corners! Thanks Craig---great job!
