    Fly-fishing combines many skills--including reading water and observing nature, focusing and keeping still, solving problems, casting and presenting the fly with grace, and above all, trusting your intuition. And Dana Rikimaru's book, filled with the voices of women who are enthusiasts of the sport, is the best guide for women who want to wade right in and apply skills they already have to the art of fly fishing . . . with photos, illustrations, and clear instructions . . . where to go . . . what to take along . . . and how how to get in touch with other women fly fishers.

    "I knew I was in trouble when I began to dream about fly fishing ... Fly fishing had become a passion, not just a pastime. I was hooked," writes author Dana Rikimaru, one of America's leading fly fishing instructors, of her beginnings in this poetic sport. Filled with adventures and encouragement contributed by women who are already fly fishing, this woman-to-woman guide gives you everything you need to wade right in ... to know where to go ... what to take ... and how to savor every moment of discovering a new sport. It even provides resources that can connect you with other women fly fishers. So whether you fly fish "to catch fish" (even if you release them to be caught another day) or because, as the author says, "trout live in beautiful places," this guide is a woman's path into a very special activity.
