In Pursuit of Trophy Brook Trout: The Ultimate Handbook of Tactics, Timing, and Territory is my 3rd book in my New England fly-fishing series. All three of my books share different information or go into different degrees of depth for certain topics.
The brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) has captured the fascination of anglers for centuries, and some fly fishers devote lifetimes in pursuit of wild or native trophies. Yet 90 percent never catch a brook trout over 14 inches. Why? Simple: the average angler doesn’t know how to find them and rarely employs the specialized tactics required for hooking a large brook trout.
Which is why I wrote this new book, I have fished for and guided anglers after wild trophy brook trout for decades and spent that time deciphering seasonal migration patterns, aquatic life cycles, and weather events impacting brookie behavior. I have tested different flies and tactics, both on the surface and down deep. This book explains where big brookies can be found, when they are catchable, how to fool them, and how to land them, all while recounting my trophy trout experiences.
The beauty of a male trophy brook trout in spawning colors rivals any of nature’s canvases; broad greenish flanks decorated with blue halos and the deep orange or burgundy of its underside highlighted by white-tipped fins that looked like an underwater baker had dipped them in vanilla frosting.
Landing a wild or native brook trout that measure in pounds instead of inches should be at the top of everyone s bucket list. Read and reread this new book and become one of the lucky few who can boast of landing a trophy wild brook trout.

After I wrote my first book, which was a “how-to” and “fishing calendar” publication, readers said that they found it extremely helpful but they also wanted to discover more places to fish. So I wrote this “where to” guide although it still includes useful fly patterns with tying instructions. Here is the book’s promo from my publisher:
This new fly-fishing guide to New England is the best- selling northeast fishing guide book ever with thousands of copies sold. Author and fly-fishing guide, Lou Zambello, provides all the information required for you find and successfully fish hundreds of waters in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts. Full-color maps accompany the fisheries, complete with GPS coordinates, access points, public land, access roads, boat ramps (including small hand launches), parking areas, named holes and pools and more. Many fly fishers flock to the same well-known waters that are written about again and again and face crowded conditions. Yet there are hundreds of productive waters that are ignored. Zambello, who has spent over 30 years fishing in New England, teamed with former Maine State Fisheries Director John Boland and other experts to cover many of these great uncrowded waters in the Flyfisher’s Guide to New England. Lou spent the last several years crisscrossing New England researching this book, a review of many hundreds of both popular and unknown, moving and stillwaters in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts. Includes recommended fly-fishing vacations, easy-access spots, and beginner suggestions. Following Wilderness Adventures Press’ tradition of creating the best fly-fishing guidebooks, the new full-color 8.5×11 Flyfisher’s Guide to New England will help you get your own piece of fishing heaven.

Fly Fishing New Hampshire’s Seacoast is a booklet that outlines and describes in detail how best to fish 4 freshwater rivers in Southwest N.H.; the Exeter River, the Isinglass River, the Cochico River, and the Lamprey River. This booklet was written by Sean Smith who guided on these rivers for years. I have had people asking me where they can find this out-of-print publication, so I contacted Sean and had it reprinted.
The reason these four rivers are special is that they are specially stocked in the fall by a private stocking organization, the Three Rivers Stocking Association. They stock huge, high-quality brown, brook, and rainbow trout and the fishing regulations change from mid October to April to catch and release. I go every late fall to fish. This book describes access points, techniques, and patterns.
The Confluence by David Van Wie and others. Forward by Lou Zambello
One of the authors of this book has been a long time friend and fishing buddy. This is a good read about college buddies who meet together every year for decades to fish the same waters. I have joined them periodically throughout the years. Here is a good description of the book:
Seven lifelong friends head north each June to a remote cabin at the confluence of the Dead Diamond and Swift Diamond Rivers in Northern New Hampshire. What started as a single fly-fishing trip has evolved over 20+ years into an annual retreat to the mystical environs of Dartmouth’s Second College Grant, far from the workaday world and vibrant with brotherhood, creativity and reflection.
Fishing is only a part of their story. In a collection of intertwined essays from seven unique voices, the authors reveal how their friendships have grown deeper as their lives flow into middle age, with laughs, tears and insight into the intersection between humanity and the natural world. The reader comes along to experience New England wilderness wonders, stinky outhouses, original watercolors, floods, a wine tasting, a dramatic search and rescue…and fly-fishing for native brook trout.
