Trout and Smallmouth Fishing on the North Branch of the Potomac: A Western Maryland River Paperback - 2009

To catch fish, you need to know where to fish.

196 pages, 140+ pictures, 34 maps, and 61 tables document the fishing on 30 miles of the North Branch from Westernport, MD through Wilson, WV.

In addition to this traditional hardcopy version, it is offered as an eBook (www.catchguide.com) with the same content - the only difference is that the eBook is in color and has active links to additional information such as Google Maps. As a guide book, it is rock solid. According to the official review done by the North American Fly Fishing Forum, "I am a big fan of Guide Books and I find The CatchGuide eBook to be one of the best I have seen. It is a great tool and I can't even imagine the work that the Author put into publishing this eBook. I highly recommend it."

Steve Moore provides a detailed, focused guide to this single body of water. Prior books all cover a broad geography - "Maryland" or "Mid-Atlantic" and, necessarily, cannot be exhaustive on any single place. Beyond setting the stage, he does not talk about the North Branch in general terms because every mile offers a different fishing experience. As Steve literally walks you up the river, he shows the specific areas to fish and discusses what you will encounter. Steve tells you how to get there, where to park, how to get to the stream, and what to use in the spots he found most productive.
