In this exciting book, Cecilia Pudge Kleinkauf uses the real-life experiences of four young women--Alyssa, Samantha, Alex, and Blair--to create an informative and engaging introduction to the sport of flyfishing for pre-teen and teenage girls. Every beginning flyfisher needs a teacher, and there's no better one for young women than Pudge Kleinkauf. She covers everything they'll need to know, from basic skills such as casting, wading, and knot tying, to using flyrods and reels and choosing flies. In addition to the basic skills, the book features information on manufacturers that make gear specifically for young people, a discussion of catch-and-release ethics, and stories from adult women anglers who began flyfishing as girls. It tells how to find nearby resources where girls can learn the sport and discover local waters where they might fish. Pudge understands the needs of young women and treats them with respect. She is the teacher anyone would want for his or her own child.

In the outdoor industry, the secret to men’s success is that they’re not afraid of failure. They don’t need to be afraid of failure because they have claimed their permanent belonging for themselves in the wilderness. We need to do the same, and so I wrote this book for you. For someone who is just getting started or wants to get started in fly fishing, there can be a lot of barriers to entry. Basic vocabulary and knowledge shouldn’t be one of those barriers. This book is by no means comprehensive. It is a basic guide to get you started on the water and in the community. In the end, we all come to the river for our own reasons. Speaking for myself, I am here for peace, connection, and adventure. I am here for me. I wrote this book for the women who see other women out on the water and are equally in awe, intimidated, and think that’s-cool-but-that-could-never-be-me. It can be, and it should be. You have a place out here. If you’re like me, sometimes you need a little push out the door. Consider these stories, knowledge, and lessons the push that gets you over the threshold. You have a place, a belonging, in the wild and beautiful spaces of the world. Don’t be afraid to claim it.
