Frank Amato Publications 2012 BOOK CATALOG Hatch Guide for Upper Midwest Streams Skeena Steelhead By R.S. Hooton by Ann R. Miller Skeena Steelhead is the story of one of the world’s premiere freshwater game fish. You won’t find tales of heroic struggles with world-record summer steelhead. Instead you’ll see the events that have conspired to imperil an internationally renowned treasure. The story begins with the Skeena steelhead biology and life history. First Nations fisheries are studied. Commercial fisheries that began 135 years ago are described in detail, showing their cumulative impact on homeward-bound Skeena steelhead. This tragic story could only be told by someone firmly entrenched in the river’s fisheries management community. Before his retirement, Bob Hooton was in charge of steelhead management on the Skeena and continues to be an inspirational defender of the Skeena’s steelhead. The situation is not hopeless, the Skeena’s remarkable steelhead runs can be restored. In Skeena Steelhead Bob Hooton shows us how we can and, more importantly, why we must. 9 x 12 inches, 160 pages, all-color.

Fly tying is a combination of art and science; fly tiers understand the biology and behavior of an insect, and then imitate it artistically. Color, size, silhouette, and behavior of an artificial are essential, which is why it’s important to have some knowledge of the local insects. Mayflies, stoneflies, caddisflies, lesser insects, and crustaceans of the upper Midwest are covered in this book.

By Craig Schuhmann Babine by Pierce Clegg & Peter McMullan Rivers are sacred and none more so than those that have the holy trinity of salmon, grizzly bears and steelhead. This book, a collection of tales on fishing, companionship and the power of dreams, is about one of those special rivers. Because of the hard work of some of those whose writing appears in this book, a narrow corridor of forest shelters the Babine. As it flows between those green, cathedral walls, carrying the salmon and steelhead back to their natal waters and giving tantalizing life to the flies cast by fishermen, the river seems a blessed, protected place. The Babine, and the lodge that gave generations of anglers access to the sacred waters, come to life in these pages. There are some great fishing stories, but this is far more than a book about fishing. It’s a book about what’s important in life. It’s a book about a beautiful, wild river and the dream that it can be saved as it is, forever. The economic forces aligned against the Babine are great. Are the hearts of those who love the river greater? After turning these pages, I think you’ll see that they are. ISBN 13: 978-1-57188-473-2 This is a sacred river and it cannot be lost. UPC: 0-81127-00315-0 It can be saved, but only if enough people care. —Mark Hume, from the Foreword All author royalties will be donated to the Babine Watershed Monitoring Trust. 9 x 12 inches, 192 pages, all-color. With graceful casts, leaping trout, and beautiful scenery, fly-fishing is a relaxing way to spend the day—if you know what you’re doing! If not, it can be a frustrating day of twisted lines and no fish. If you’d prefer the relaxing day, then Get Started Fly-Fishing! will help you develop a clear understanding of the fundamentals of fly-fishing and catching trout on a fly rod. Fly-fishing is a very complex and intimidating sport, and Schuhmann breaks it down to easy-to-understand sections on: trout; fishing presentations; fly-fishing gear; knots and riggings; fly-casting fundamentals; trout food and fly patterns; reading water; and many other useful tips. In addition to teaching the basics, this book also gives recommendations for developing the more nuanced approaches required for specific rivers and conditions. The author has introduced hundreds of anglers to the sport using the principles in this book—and they will work for you too. 8 1/2 x 11, 112 pages, full color.

The father and son have found a common bond in rivers, and this bond is clearly reflected in their writing and photography. Few people are so enamored with the life and history of rivers and salmon. The essence of May the Rivers Never Sleep is the physical and biological tapestry of river time—month by month, a concept fostered by Roderick Haig-Brown. Wellrespected anglers in their own right, Bill and John have spent thousands of hours viewing rivers and fish, above and below water. Their revelations from snorkeling in rivers have led to its spread as a tool of science to protect fish, rivers, and related wildlife. The essays and gorgeous photographs in this book reflect Bill and John’s lives largely spent on rivers as anglers, naturalists, and scientists—men struck by the wonder of the life of rivers.

Other oddballs include: baitfish, dragonflies, crayfish, leeches, sow bugs, terrestrials, etc.; all of them are prey that have consistently proven themselves important to fishermen.

Harrison Living alone in the woods of northern Minnesota, Mona Bell once amazed a neighbor by shooting a dozen clothespins off a line at 25 yards, firing revolvers from both hands in rapid succession. Her reclusive life in Minnesota was stark contrast to her earlier life in Oregon where she had a public role in battling the federal government after the Army commandeered her hilltop mansion and acreage in the Columbia River Gorge to build Bonneville Dam. Mona’s mansion 40 miles east of Portland, Oregon, was built in 1928 as a gift from her lover, the flamboyant entrepreneur Sam Hill, whose lasting works include the Maryhill Museum and the Columbia River Highway. Three years later Sam, 33 years Mona’s senior, was dead. The government condemned the mansion she loved, offering compensation Mona would deride as a pittance. She battled the government in federal court with a former Oregon governor as her attorney and the current governor as a witness. 6 x 9 inches, 139 b/w pages 16 page color insert.
