Michael Fong
was inducted into the Hall of Fame of
the North California Council Federation of Fly Fishers.
Read an article about the event.
"Michael Fong was a giant in the world of fly fishing. His tireless efforts did much to popularize and advance our sport. He has left a legacy that will benefit future generations of fly anglers, and for this the Federation of Fly Fishers will be forever grateful."
~ Jim Rainey, Federation of Fly Fishers Executive Director
From Frank Amato Books: The Inside Angler was a small-run magazine with a big cult following. From over 200 destinations he'd covered, Michael Fong narrowed down the list to pick the 10 best western fly-fishing destinations. The in-depth information provided on each lake, reservoir, and river chosen will guide you to a successful day on that water.
Locations include the best fishing in Montana, Oregon, British Columbia, California, Alberta, Wyoming and Idaho. For each destination, Michael and Christine include in-depth information, such as: a description of the river and its surroundings; productive techniques and flies; fly shops; accommodations, including campsites and RV parks; restaurants; and much more.
This book belongs on the shelf of all fly-fishers...those lucky enough to live in this grand region and those who visit its world-famous fly-fishing!
8.5 x 11 inches, 96 pages, all color, 10 detailed maps
