Like the original edition, this revised edition is divided into three sections. The first section has three chapters, which discuss tackle, techniques, and describes most of the species you are likely to encounter while fishing in Florida salt.
The second section contains the results of interviews with dozens of top fly fishing guides from all sections of the Florida coast. In these interviews, the guides share info on access, types of fishing available, best times of the year, favorite spots and flies, and a great deal of little known how-to info.
The third sections discusses fly selection and contains detailed descriptions on tying locally important fly patterns. What you will find are some of the classic saltwater patterns like the Deceiver and the Seaducer, and some more modern patterns like the Merkin Crab, or synthetic minnows.
The appendix includes info on getting licensed to fish, and index, and a Resource Catalog for those wanting even more info.
The Florida coastline is more than 2000 miles long. No one individual could possible know it all, and no single book could possibly cover every inch of it.

Anyone who wants to be able to visit any area in florida with or without a boat, fly tackle in hand, and find an hour, a day, a week or a lifetime of quality fishing could definitely use this book.
