A licensed fly-fishing guide’s observations on the common mistakes made by anglers, A Guide’s Guide to Fly-Fishing Mistakes provides practical tips on how to improve fly-fishing techniques and break bad habits. Licensed fishing guide and instructor Sara Low offers remedies to freshwater anglers on topics that include correctly approaching fish, improving fly selection, proper presentation, consistent and accurate casting, and efficient hooking and landing of fish, as well as pointers for fishing in spring, summer, fall, and winter.
Although written for anglers with experience, the notes will be just as helpful to anglers who have not had time to develop bad habits. Low elaborates on how to fix the mistakes many experienced fly-fishers make. Supplementing her methods are tales that illustrate different mistakes made on the water with her suggested correction for each mistake. Taking these suggestions to heart will provide you with that “ah-ha!” moment you’ve been waiting for.
As a guide, Low sees the same mistakes being made over and over again. Now you can see them too with this must-have resource. More fish, bigger fish, better fish—whatever the goal, the experienced and novice angler will find meaningful advice for greater fishing success.

Practical advice presented with grace and humor
By Doug
"A Guide's Guide to Fly-Fishing Mistakes" takes a clever approach to instructing anglers whether novice or experienced: frame the problem by anecdote and explanation, and then present the "fix". I did not get the impression that the author's intent in writing this book was to deliver a technical dissertation or to enlighten the most learned of fly fishing afficianados. For mere mortals, an easy and entertaining read is often the best way to learn something new, and even more so when the learning is meant to be recreational. There is a lot of good common sense in this book, common sense that has been described in other works and in other ways since humans first attached a hook to a line. When faced with a stream filled with rising trout, and only half into my waders and with rod not yet strung, common sense has a way of getting left on the bank along with the gear I forgot to strap on before dashing into the water. A book like "A Guide's Guide" is a great way to reinforce basic principles and finer details when I can't fish but have time to think/dream about fishing. This book accomplishes that by a fusion of practicality, grace and humor. Highly recommended.

Worth buying only for the occasional laugh...
By PCNiles
I purchased this book for my husband who is not only a devoted fly fisher completely immersed in every aspect of fly fishing, but who is also a scholar of fishing literature, old and new. Our library of books on the subject number over 400 books, books dating back to the late 1800s and early 1900s and up to the current year, covering the history of fly fishing as well as technical books on fly tying. It is a rare book that he has not read on this subject matter.
My husband does not have his own Amazon account, and since I was the one who purchased this book for him, I write this review on his behalf, based on what he has told me.
In his own words, this was his initial take on this book:
"This is an extremely fundamental treatment, often sophomoric and laughably anthropomorphic, which will have questionable value even to the most rank beginner."
Much ---if not all--- of the advice contained herein has been previously published in other better written books. One cannot be certain why a book like this came to be published, but it is interesting to research the publisher and then note who has endorsed the book on the back cover. There appears to be a 'relative' connection to the publisher (Skyhorse Publishing) and at least one of the rave reviewers. I have no idea who the only other reviewer here on Amazon is (posted previously in June of 2013), but it is his only review here on Amazon, thus I wonder if he has a vested interest somehow. Or perhaps he is a friend of the author's.
Here are an example of the pseudo-wisdom you will find within, to give you an idea of the type of advice contained herein.
Ms. Low gives this advice under the title, "When the Fish Don't Respond."
"If fish are not taking the insects that are hatching, switch to a pattern known to work in that area." (p.165)
My husband's comment on this, rather lame, advice is that this situation is known as a masked hatch and its solution is discussed widely in the literature. To dismiss it as she does without further comment demonstrates a lack of knowledge on the subject matter.
But it's Ms. Low's anthropomorphic take on nature that brought about the loudest guffaws. This is what she wrote in discussing snags:
"That's why Mother Nature invented leaves and decreed that they fall from trees in autumn. Leaves float down a stream and snag on hooks. Many an unsuspecting fly fisher mistakes the tug of a maple leaf for the bite of a rainbow. It's a thrill, and you should enjoy it while it lasts. ...
"A tug on your line could be a fish or a leaf. You never know, so enjoy the thrill." (Pp. 148-149)
Ah, yes! The thrill of snagging a floating leaf down, "The river [that] has a limited time to get where it's going..." (p. 147)
Mother Nature--ever the prankster!
Unfortunately, my husband gained nothing from this book other than a moment of astonishment that it was ever published. Not only was it a waste of money on my part and valuable time on his part, but it's an embarrassment to the legions of great writers who have contributed valuable advice and wisdom to the sport. This book does not in any way embrace or respect that storied tradition.
I know that in writing this review I will elicit numerous "unhelpful" clicks as is always the case with 'critical' reviews, but please know, I am being completely honest in my assessment of this book, based on my husband's reading of it, his sharing of his opinion, and my own novice understanding of the sport. I have no personal reason to be critical of the author or the publishers of this book, knowing neither, and I write this only to provide an honest opinion of the book for the prospective buyer. If you're still interested in buying this book, I have listed our copy for resale. It's 'almost' new, read only once. Cheap.

A Guides Guide to Fly-Fishing Mistakes
By Gregory C. Lagueux
I have been fishing for over 45 years and I am a member of the IGFA, which is the International Game Fishing Assoc. and the North American Fishing Club. I have had great success fishing without the aid of a boat and will continue to do so. I have recently taken up fly fishing and with my thirst for knowledge I have read many books on the subject.
I have recently read Ms. Low's book and it is truly a great read with outstanding information on the subject. The book advised me on everything from selecting the proper equipment and how to use it, to where and when to fish. This is an exciting adventure I'm on and I thank Ms. Low for
sharing her extensive knowledge on the subject which she gained from years of fishing and being a Fly-Fishing Guide.
If you want to learn about any subject you go to the experts, and Ms. Low is one of them.
I would advised any fisherman who wants to either learn how to fly fish or become better at the sport to read this book. Its very well written and illustrated and a must read for novice to expert.
