Lou Zambello – Fly FIsher’s Guide To New England

Lou Zambello hails from the great state of Maine and runs a program called Mainely Fly Fishing. His expertise travels far beyond the borders of Maine though. He’s an author of several books, notably, In Pursuit of Trophy Brook Trout and Fly Fisher’s Guide to New England, the latter being part of the Wilderness Adventure Press Fly Fishing Guidebooks. As in the other titles in this series, this has been the absolute reference material for fly fishing in the New England states.

We dive deep into all things fishing in the northeast, the changing water temperature and fishing patterns, Carrie Stevens flies and tactics for success. Enjoy!
