Talachulitna River - Pursuing the leopard trout, a fish of amazing beauty, women learn to fly fish on Alaska's first catch-and-release river. Tangle Lakes - Mastering the art of placing a dry fly perfectly in the "feeding lane," the fly fishers catch eager Arctic Grayling. Brooks River - Fishing for sockeye salmon, the visitors keep a wary eye on thousand-pound brown bears pursuing the same objective. Aniak River - Catching Alaska's exquisitely colored char, the anglers also savor an exceptional wilderness experience. Float Tubing - Using personal watercraft for lake fishing, the women experience the fun of catching trout from their own "belly boat." Fly Fishing Women is a unique combination of an adventure story, a gift book with more than on hundred color photographs, and a how-to guide with fishing techniques, twenty of Alaska's best flies, and much practical information for planning the fishing trip of a lifetime.
