- Orvis gives a wicked cool behind the scenes view of the evolution of the Mirage reel as it went from idea, through design, to launch. Dang but that thing was ugly early on. Concrete Gray -- not an appealing color.

Shameless Commerce Link: For years, I've enjoyed David Whitlock's articles in Trout Unlimited's magazine, Trout. He's had a series of articles focused on the stuff that trout eat. They're practical, tightly written, and wonderfully illustrated by Whitlock. Now the articles have been compiled in a single book. I finished it in two marathon sessions. A bonus section include stream tactics. Very well done. Trout and Their Food: A Compact Guide for Fly Fishers
