It owes its reputation in part to Mo Bradley, a man of humble origins now known as a pioneer of fly-fishing culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eTrout School\u003c\/em\u003e, award-winning author and journalist Mark Hume passes on what he's learned from his countless hours on--and off--the lake with the master. Drawing from more than twenty years of fishing and friendship, Hume distills the best of Mo's essential knowledge, including tips and tricks for catching Kamloops trout year-round, detailed instructions for tying thirteen signature flies, and advice for a more respectful and ecologically conscious approach to fishing. But\u003cem\u003e Trout School\u003c\/em\u003e is more than just a guidebook. Hume illustrates these lessons with beautifully descriptive stories about his own times on the water--with Mo, by himself, or teaching his own young daughters to fish. Illustrated with stunning paintings by BC artist Nana Cook, the result is both a thoughtful tribute to a fly-fishing legend and an invaluable resource for experienced anglers and novices alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMark Hume\u003c\/strong\u003e is an award-winning environmental journalist and author of four books, including the acclaimed \u003cem\u003eRiver of the Angry Moon\u003c\/em\u003e.
