Last week I kicked off a new content series on Casting Across. This is the second YouTube book review, and there are at least another ten scheduled to come out in the next months.

I started with Healing Waters by Beau Beasley. It is a newer book that deals with some of the most important subject matter possible in fly fishing.

Today’s video focuses on Ed Shenk’s Fly Rod Trouting. If you fish terrestrials, if you fish spring creeks, or if you are a student of the history of fly fishing, this volume is an essential read. Probably because Shenk fished and lived alongside so many other marquee angler-authors of the mid-20th century, his sole contribution is an underrated book.

I also share a pretty exciting piece of gear connected to the book towards the end of the video.

Watch what else I have to say about the book, and find out where you can pick it up, below:
