Guaranteed to spark memories of enjoyable time spent afield, this classic collection of stories from well-loved authors Gene Hill and Steve Smith captures the essence and humor of the outdoor life. Whether they're writing about ice fishing, calling ducks, dealing with gunsmiths, or dragging the unwilling dog to the vet, these two wits are sure to entertain. And when it comes to recalling those all-too-abundant missed shots, close calls, and ones that got away, readers might just learn a thing or two about the art of "looking at the truth from a variety of angles," as Gene Hill offers "irrefutable proof that the judgment and memory of the outdoorsman improves, like a fine wine, with time."

Michigan is one of the best states in the nation for flyfishing, and Jon Osborn's all-new Flyfisher's Guide to Michigan details the outstanding fishing opportunities like no other guidebook on the market. The author covers the hot spots and lesser known fisheries with personal experiences, historical overviews, effective techniques for both warmwater and coldwater species and resident and anadromous species, stocking data, appropriate gear and flies, access points, nearby fly shops, approximate float times and much more. Photographer Hunter Brumels provides the visuals that paint the full picture of the fishing in this incredible state. With bonus coverage of nearby watering holes, anglers will have everything they need for many memorable days. From mainstays like the Au Sable, Pere Marquette, Muskegon and Manistee rivers to hidden gems like the Rabbit and Red Cedar rivers, Osborn has put in the river-time so that you can get down to business. Many more forks and tributaries are covered, including trout, steelhead, salmon, bass and pike fisheries. This book comes standard with Wilderness Adventures Press' precise and detailed full-color maps, with GPS coordinates for all access points, boat ramps, and parking areas, along with access roads, public land and more. As Lefty once said: "If someone can't find locations from these maps - they need to stay home." Whether you're a veteran fly angler or new to the sport, get an edge with this all-new guidebook.
