Cutthroat - by Michael Graybrook (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Beginning in 1995, Michael Graybrook traveled to remote areas of the American West to take photographs of the trout underwater and released them unharmed. Collected in this new clothbound book are large, exquisitely reproduced photographs of all of the subspecies of cutthroat trout, stunning habitat images of streams, rivers, lakes, and the unspoiled areas of the West, along with Graybrook's vividly told stories of his adventures. A foreword by the world's most popular and respected fly fishing author John Gierach introduces the reader to Graybrook's mission and celebrates his skills as a photographer, angler, amateur scientist, and conservationist.
