Pocketguide
to Pennsylvania Hatches
by Charles Meck, Paul Weamer
Hardcover from Headwater Books
ISBN: 0979346053
Charlie Meck and Paul Weamer team up to provide a concise overview of
the most important hatches on Pennsylvania trout streams, including mayflies,
caddis, stoneflies, midges, as well as other important trout-stream foods.
This handy guide includes color photos of each insect as well as recipes
and photos of the authors' recommended fly patterns for each hatch. Detailed
charts at the beginning of each section provide a quick reference for emergence
dates and size of the insects. After an overview of the life cycle of each
of the major classes of insects, individual entries provide essential information
such as common and Latin names, size range (hook and natural), and time
and date of emergence. The authors provide in-depth descriptions of all
life stages of the insect, emergence time and date, behavior, tactics,
and the premier streams in the state to find the best hatches. Meck's intimate
knowledge of the hatches around the state combined with Weamer's penchant
for the perfect pattern make this book a must-have reference for anyone
who fishes trout streams in the Keystone State. |
