A collection of the most popular articles & tips from 170 consecutive issues of Field & Stream. A direct, down-to-earth viewpoint of one who has "been there, done it." B&W photos & illus; 6x9 inches, 256 pgs.
'Areal veteran of the outdoors, H. G. Tapply writes from the direct, down-to-earth viewpoint of one who has 'been there, done it'. He denies being an expert in any sense of the word, but he is nevertheless a walking encyclopedia on virtually every phase of outdoor sport and writes with the true ring of authority on all aspects of fishing, hunting, camping, dog training, fly tying, and woodcraft.
With a new introduction written by his son, William G. Tapply Jr.'accomplished author of mystery novels and outdoor sports books including Upland Days, Pocket Water, and The Orvis Pocket Guide to Fly Fishing for Bass, Field & Stream contributing editor, and current writing professor at Emerson College and Clark University 'TAP'S TIPS thoroughly spans the tricks experts use to catch trout with flies or bass, pike, salmon, and panfish with lures and bait; discusses tackle; how to clean and cook fish; and how to simply get more pleasure from a day on the water. Tapply also covers hunting upland game birds, ducks, small game, big game, and varmints; gun handling (with a shooting tip practically guaranteed to make you a better wingshot); boating; and also offers advice on the companions that can make or break a trip into the woods.
Tapply's narrative skill makes reading this book almost as enjoyable as actually hooking a good-sized trout or watching a bird dog stiffen to a solid point on a cornered pheasant.
