Dave and Emily Whitlock Books

Dave Whitlock's passion for trout lead him to write some of the best, most informative books on trout, habits and likes. The "Guide to Aquatic Trout Foods" is the modern day bible on the subject. This is a must have book for anyone looking to learn about what trout eat.......and the flies to imitate that food. Truly one of the first books any trout angler should read. It is the  essential guide to all the crucial issues: How various flies imitate correctly a variety of food items. How to understand trout feeding patterns and watch the water to spot them. How to identify the important mayflies, stone flies, caddis flies, midges and other aquatic insects, and choose imitations. How to identify forage fish. And how to make proper presentations.

Trout and their Food, his book gathers the best of Dave’s lively Trout Magazine columns and beautiful illustrations into a single, well-organized, indispensable volume. Beginners and seasoned fly anglers alike will find something useful here, from tips on reading the water to fly selection to recognizing rise forms. It’s the next best thing to a one-on-one lesson with Dave himself, and the results are simple: you’ll catch more fish. Artfully autographed by Emily Whitlock

Artful Profile of Trouts, Chart and Salmon, It is with passion and clarity that Dave and Emily Whitlock describe the unique stories of the major species of cold-water fish that are most sought after by fly fishers: trout, char and salmon.  Beautifully autographed by Emily Whitlock.

While we lost David in 2022, his work, art, his immense contributions to fly fishing will live for ever in his writing, exquisite art and precious memories we have of this incredible man. We were privilege to his friendship and love, Andy and Lily Renzetti
