4 out of 5 stars Microinvertibrates for Piscators!   May 30, 2007
Thisa book is short and to the point aout the different genre of aquadic insects in most waters. Since the author does promote himself to Fishermen, especially Fly Fishermen, the work is not so much of a scientific study -even thought it reads like one- this book does the trick when you want to know the basic info about microinvertibrates and aquatic insects.
This book does belong on every Fly Fisherman's book shelf especially if they tie their own flies.



5 out of 5 stars Clear and concise. Written for the fly fisher.   December 28, 1998

Although this will not ensure the identification of a collected specimen it will let you know what type it is, for the most common found, and it's basic behavour. A great book for the beginner,


5 out of 5 stars The guide provides basic taxonomy for the layperson.   November 23, 1998

This guide allows an observant non-biologist to classify many nymphs, emergers and adult acquatic insects.

Besides the book you will need a good pocket loup, a small net, a collection bottle and a complete lack of squeemishness.

This book does much of the work of Schweibert's excellent Matching The Hatch in a far more basic and compact package. If you are a trout / steelhead fly-fisher and you want to expand your knowledge of the dinner faire of our favorite salmonids -- this is an excellent place to start.
