Favorite Flies for Smallmouth Bass

Smallmouth bass swim in lakes and rivers across the United States and Canada and are a premier fly-rod game fish in almost every way—they take flies readily, feed on diverse foods for a long period of time, tolerate higher water temperatures than trout, and fight harder than any other North American freshwater fish their size.
The book is part of the Favorite Flies series that features 50 flies from the best anglers and tiers on a topic or region, covers important patterns from the past to present day, and includes large, detailed photos and recipes.
