Bill Horn's Alaska book is a triumph. As a professional fly-fishing traveler for over fifty years, I've always explored my destinations through the magic of books to obtain success. Crimson Wave is the ultimate guide to fly fishing in southwestern Alaska, and it should be a state requirement to read this book before fishing these hallowed waters. Bill's stories of fishing culture and environmental history keep the reader glued to the book. Crimson Wave captures the rich natural and human history of Bristol Bay's fisheries, from the lifecycles of the sockeye salmon that form the region's ecological backbone, to the land use and management plans that have allowed these fish--and the communities that rely on them--to persevere through difficult times. Bill adds enough fishing anecdotes to have you Googling airline tickets to Dillingham or King Salmon! Not all anglers will be lucky enough to make the bucket-list trip to fish the storied rivers that flow into Bristol Bay, but curling up with Crimson Wave is the next best thing to stepping off a Beaver float plane to begin your own adventure.
