A fellow that I had met in the locker room at my local gym tipped me off about the great fishingand hiking along the John Muir trail. His stories really peaked my interest but I had no ideawhere to begin researching the "wheres" and "how to"s.Mr. Beck's book, Trout Fishing the John Muir Trail was just what I needed. I enjoyed his "down toearth" approach and the many wise tips he shares regarding not only locations but equipment(be sure to take a backup rod) clothing and essential flies. The book is an easy read at 96pages but chock full of great info.
