Stalking Trout

Fishing to sighted trout is one of the most exciting forms of trout fishing, but fishing to a trout is not enough the aim is to catch it. Les Hill and Graeme Marshall have combined their talents once again after a more than ten year gap to jointly write what is destined to become a New Zealand Classic. The first time they collaborated was in 1984 when they co-wrote Stalking Trout they followed up in 1991 with Catching Trout and Images of Silver in 1993. It is a testament to the ideas they contain that all have been continually in print since publication. Stalking Trout has been reprinted over twelve times. In the twenty years since the first book both have continued to fish and learn the ways of trout and more importantly catching them. Graeme Marshall became a full time professional fishing guide (now retired) while Les Hill has become a photographer specialising in trout fishing, his work has been seen regularly in outdoor magazines and books in New Zealand and North America. The knowledge gained in the past twenty years brings new insights into stalking and catching trout.
