Default Book. Fishing the Canadian Rockies

Is the book any good? Only 2 reviews on Amazon. Haven’t come across anyone referencing it on the forum.

Which edition? Fly Fishing the Canadian Rockies or Fishing the Canadian Rockies?

The latter is a bit more recent but both are dated...

Good general info, but may not be accurate. Good overview and worth it for a general reference.

I have the Fly Fishing edition and it's the more rare of the two...

I have Fishing the Canadian Rockies and consider it a great book. It’s definitely outdated for some lakes, but accurate for others. A new updated 2nd edition is supposedly being released soon.

Thanks, was thinking either and assumed the newer edition would be better. May wait for the new edition to be released then. Picked up Pocketguide to Westen Hatches and like it. Just my second season at this so thought it was very informative.
