"A great new book by Tim Holschlag, about twice as big as his first one. I recommend you buy it before it sells out and you have to pay premium prices to out-of-print booksellers, like with his first book."
-- Clyde Drury-- Editor, The Smallmouth Bookshelf
"Holschlag has produced a detailed plan to pursue smallmouth bass. He goes one step further than most books by adding detailed information on places to catch smallmouth across the country, covering many diverse locals. This is a book every bass angler should have."
-- Forth Worth Fly Fishers, Texas
"Tim Holschlag's book "Smallmouth Fly Fishing" has started to change the way I think. His outlook covers 40 years of pursuing smallies. I've re-read some chapters three times."
-- Steve White, president, Missouri Smallmouth Alliance
"Really three volumes packed into one convenient package, with modern and innovative techniques. No doubt about it, a very helpful book for fly-fishers of all levels of experience. I especially liked the guidance on how to hook up with a porkster bronzeback."
--Troy Winebarger-- Georgia River Fishing.com
"Tim Holschlag knows bronzebacks better than anyone. The real value of this book is the tips and tricks that Holschlag shares. And then there are the flies, all proven producers and some of the very best around. Smallmouth Fly Fishing really is three books in one, and will make you one with the smallmouth."
-- Fisherman's Corner, Hunt the North.com
"Successful strategies-- smallmouth bass fishing guru Tim Holschlag spells them out in his new book, "Smallmouth Fly Fishing."
-- Dave Carlson, host of "Northland Adventures"

"I totally loved the book!!! You did a really nice job of filling the void that had been lacking in just about all of the other smallmouth fly fishing books. Nice work!!!" Jim Guerriero
"Excellent book! I wish more writers would show the reverence and passion and details of technique that you show, rather than speaking about some new piece of equipment all of the time"
Nathan Johnson
-- Stewartville, MN
"Splendid book! Amazingly comprehensive, Bravo! I had paged through a copy a friend-of-a-friend had, and just that alone got me onto some fish-- I scored an 18"-my best flyrod smallmouth ever. A week later it came into my local flyshop and I snapped it up! Now that I've re-read the book, with certain passages literally dozens of times (fun to read!) I feel really confidant with the new retrieves and the terrific fly patterns."
Rob Hoffhines
-- Wilmette, Illinois

Scott Meier
--Springfield, MO

Warren Phillips
-- Woodbine, MD
"Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion about smallmouths. The book has definitely made me a much better smallie fisherman in a very short order of time. Your pattern the HHF is fantastic for big smallies out here on the Hudson River"
Robin Hill
-- Alaska fishing guide, NY
"Very comprehensive but at the same time easy to follow. I have been a fly fisherman for 40 years, and am enjoying the book immensely. The section on flies makes the book for me a good buy."
Richard Mallard
-- Bloomington, Indiana
"Here is a photo of a fish from the Shiawasse-- 20+ inches of pure river smallmouth-- that I caught doing the Hop you teach in the book. This is a killer technique. Accounts for probably 90% of my smallmouths." John Biehn
