Reviews for Angler's Guide to Rocky Mountain National Park
"Les and Kim Beery have come up with a real gem of a book for both local anglers and those making only brief fishing trips into Rocky Mountain National Park. They have condensed their vast knowledge and experience into a handy, portable guide packed full of excellent information on all aspects of angling in the park, including how to get to the best fishing spots, what fish you can expect to find, and how to fish for them once you get there. What else do you need?"
-Bert Cushing, stream ecologist, author, and angler
"This is a fine little field guide and will prove to be a great help to people new to Rocky Mountain National Park, and its waters. Its compact size makes it an easy, and useful, addition to any angler's pack or pocket. The narrative quickly displays the authors' experience and knowledge of the Park, its waters, and the fish residing there. Photos throughout, especially of the fish, and locations are first rate. Fly recommendations are clear and for easily obtained patterns widely available locally, making it easy for the non-local to go afield well equipped. This nice concise book will be like having an experienced guide along on your trip."
-Austin Condon, National Park volunteer and Past President of the local chapter of Trout Unlimited
"What a great book! Well organized with great illustrations. Good information, particularly the "Tips from your guide". Les and Kimball have generously shared the knowledge that they've gained from more than 40 years of fishing Rocky Mountain National Park. They tell you the best spots to fish from on the shoreline, what to use and how to fish it. You can cut the learning curve by a huge amount with these tips! Anyone could benefit from this book to be successful."
