Imposters by Skip Morris is a beautifully crafted collection of twenty-one essays centered on one enduring theme: artificial flies. Blending storytelling, fly-fishing history, practical instruction, and a lifetime of experience on the water, each essay is accompanied by an original art piece and detailed fly illustrations with complete tying recipes. Richly illustrated throughout, this hardcover volume is as enjoyable to read as it is to reference.
"Imposters is much more than a book about artificial flies—take it from this non-fishing author. With eloquence and wit, Skip Morris swept me along a sparkling river of words, celebrating not just a lifelong passion for a unique pastime, but a reverence for nature. Paired with his wife Carol Ann Morris's detailed and striking illustrations, these lyrical, often humorous essays will captivate fly fishing enthusiasts around the world."
— A. J. Banner, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and #1 Kindle bestselling author
"The stories are delightfully written and I can hear Skip telling them as if he were right there next to me. You'll want to read this one."
— Gary Borger, author of Reading Waters and The Angler as Predator
"I always enjoy reading Skip's essays because he's always delivering me to places I've never been, and leading me into experiences that I've never experienced. Delightful!"
— Dave Hughes, author of Big Indian Creek and Nymphs for Streams & Still Waters
"As a skilled angler can effortlessly cast a fly into a challenging and technical drift, so too does Skip Morris direct the written word. He writes from decades spent on the water, adding humor and commentary that hooks readers as they find shared experiences and perspectives. Artist Carol Ann Morris brings further life to Skip's words through her soft pencil drawings."
— Jessianne Castle, Editor in Chief, Big Sky Journal
