Book Description
Join Koos, the authors alter-ego on an epic overland trip along the legendry Cape-to-Cairo trail an onward into the mystique of Asia. This is not only a tale of a wanderers attempt to escape the `mainstream, but also an open-minded spiritual quest to explore the essence of life and the course of destiny. Koos, a hard-drinking bachelor who is not averse to a bit of hanky-panky, opens his diary in Cape Town, the `Mother city of Southern Africa. Due to visa problems he misses the initial departure with his travel companions only to meet up with them in Namibia. From there the colourful narrative leads the reader up the Skeleton Coast and on into the Okavango, Victoria Falls, the Chobe, South Luangwa, Malawi, Zanzibar, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. There is adventure in Ethiopia, and the gripping ordeal through the Nubian Desert, up the Nile, and onward into ancient Cairo. Barred entry into Europe and Turkey, Koos heads off to Bangkok, and northward onto a Mekong River boat to Luang Prabang. The tale unfolds into the wonder of Angkor Wat and explores the horror of the Kmer Rouge. Inspired by tales of the fabled Shangri-La, Koos joins an inspirational companion to venture beyond Kathmandu into the breathtaking heights of the Annapurna Mountains. India unravels Calcutta, the Bay of Bengal, the ruins of the Vijayangar Empire, and on to the golden Goan beaches. After a crisis in Bombay he returns to Bangkoks warm embrace for a glimpse into his future.

Book Description
90 fly patterns that will work east and west plus details on insects and the patterns developed to imitate themPhotos by Bonnie and RenÃ(c) Harrop, Toshi Karita, Rich Paini, Masa KatsumataOriginal artwork by RenÃ(c) Harrop"In a lifetime nearing seven decades, I have devoted the vast majority of my time probing the mysteries of legendary waters like the Yellowstone, Firehole, Madison, Snake, and the Henry's Fork. Numerous lesser known rivers and lakes have cooled my legs but not my enthusiasm as I roam this region with a constant spirit of anticipation and discovery. In a single lifetime, it would be impossible to fish all the water in and near the park, and a close relationship with even a handful is a significant accomplishment." --RenÃ(c) Harrop, Learning from the WaterRenÃ(c) Harrop records lessons learned from years fishing the world's toughest trout water. His home water, the Henry's Fork, is one of the most challenging spring creeks in the world, and over his lifetime fishing the Henry's Fork, he has developed legendary techniques and flies to meet the challenge.In Learning from the Water, RenÃ(c) shares his wisdom on the importance of insect stages, the flies for a successful fly box, and how to plan and prepare for a trip to unfamiliar water. Chapters on midges, caddis, Flavs, Callibaetis, Tricos, PMDs, hoppers, beetles, aquatic wasps, and Baetis give solid inside information on each of these important insects as well as the patterns RenÃ(c) uses to imitate them, patterns that inspire fly tiers the world over.
