There has long been a divide between flyfishing and coarse fishing - but there is no reason for it This book shows you how to fish in a new way, showing flyfishers and coarse anglers the benefits of both areas of the sport.

Traditional Angling celebrates the ultimate form of pleasure fishing, where the angler relaxes at the waterside to become, as Izaak Walton would say, 'compleat'. It wears its heart on its sleeve and a wildflower in its lapel. It's written for those who appreciate the aesthetics of angling and uphold its sporting traditions.

"These questions and more are answered within the pages of Fishing for Buffalo. Rob Buffler and Tom Dickson dispel myths and rumors about rough fish with credible biological information while also demonstrating the joy of angling for nontraditional fish. The wealth of information within qualifies this book as a fishing bible for the growing number of rough fishing enthusiasts in the United States and makes it easy to identify the rough fish you may catch. It even includes a sampling of Dickson and Buffler’s favorite recipes, such as Burbot Boulangère and Deviled Grilled Cisco."--Publisher description.

For anglers interested in catching more than trout and bass, who dont want to travel to at faraway places and buy expensive, specialized equipment, opportunities for coarse fishing abound. Using unconventional baitfishing techniques and equipment, Brook Landis has developed a uniquely American approach to catching coarse fish that is challenging and fun.
