FLY FISHING LONG ISLAND is now available... Angelo Peluso is pleased to announce the publication of his new book Fly Fishing Long Island (WW Norton and Company/Countryman Press). This comprehensive guidebook to freshwater and saltwater fly-fishing on Long Island is the first of its kind and explores all the significant opportunities for fly-fishing both venues. Long island has long been known as a fisherman's paradise - now it's been rediscovered as a world-renowned saltwater fly fishing destination with equally impressive freshwater opportunities. The fall runs of striped bass, bluefish and false albacore draw anglers from far and near. The island also boasts world-class freshwater fisheries with opportunities for sea-run brown trout and rainbow trout; bass and panfish also abound in lakes and ponds. While much has been written about various aspects of Long Island's fly fishing opportunities, Fly Fishing Long island is the first comprehensive compilation of all that Long Island has to offer. Fly Fishing Long Island highlights everything the experienced - or the novice - angler needs to know, ranging from destination information to how to catch the available variety of game fish species. Angelo has been a freelance columnist for the Fisherman magazine as well as having been a contributor to Field & Stream, Fly Fishing in Saltwater, Fish Alaska Magazine and various other local, regional and national publications. His previous book, Saltwater Flies of the Northeast, is an acclaimed best seller. He was also recently recognized by the New York State Outdoor Writers Association for his award-winning articles and photography. Angelo lives and fishes on Long Island. Copies of the book can be purchased directly from the author at angelopeluso.com or emailing him at Apdotcominfo@aol.com. The book is also available at all major retail outlets, online booksellers and various fishing shops throughout the region. This book will serve as an essential reference guide for both beginning and advanced fly anglers and fly tiers, and it is also a window on the world of some of the region's most successful fly fishermen. It contains the profiles of exceptional flies of more than 100 professional and amateur tiers, guides and captains. Their designs and patterns have been successfully fished regionally - from the southern tip of New Jersey up through the rugged coastline of Maine, and most all locations in between. Within these pages are the "go-to" designs that each contributing fly tier, professional guide and captain uses when the going gets tough. This comprehensive book contains beautiful photographs and stunning artwork, plus descriptions and recipes for 370 of the most effective Northeast saltwater fly patterns being used today. An indispensable guide for fly tying, this book will become a "must-have" for the serious or aspiring saltwater fly tier and fly angler on either coast. See Book Section for further details.
