5 out of 5 stars Fishing the Madison River   August 23, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

An easy to read and understand book with a wealth of information for those planning a trip to this Montana jewell of a river. Broken down by seasons and hatches so you can key in on the time you plan on being on the river and disregard, if you like, the rest or save for another time. A great hip pocket reference for fishing the Madison River, where to fish it and what to bring. Perfect for the novice or expert alike.


5 out of 5 stars The Perfect Prelude   May 12, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

If you're heading to the Madison for the first time, this book is a must. It gives you all the insight you need to prepare for the trip, the right flies to tie up in advance and proper line and tippets. Once you're there, you'll know where to be at what time of the day to get all the action you can handle.


5 out of 5 stars A distillation of decades of experience   October 11, 2001
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

Volume three in the oustanding Greycliff "River Books" series, Fly Fishing The Madison offers the aspiring angler a distillation of decades of experience, knowledge, and insight in this "user friendly" guide to fishing Montana's Madison river. Here is a wealth of information on the hatches, seasons, and reaches of the river, along with "tips, tricks & techniques" for unlocking the secrets of an surprisingly diverse river. The authors show how to fish the Madison with dry flies, nymphs, and streamers, as well as pointing out the right moments for each type of fly. Of special interest is Craig Mathews' contributions about fishing the Madison's two "stillwater" areas -- Hebgen Lake and Quake Lake. If you are planning an excursion to the Madison, begin by a thorough reading of Craig Mathews and Gary LaFontaine's Fly Fishing The Madison! Also very highly recommended for the angler's reference shelf are the other volumes in this outstanding series: Fly Fishing The Beaverkill; Fly Fishing The Henry's Fork; and Fly Fishing The Yellowstone In The Park.
