my old T&T and Lamson; still going strong!

New Books at D&H!!

    We just got several large shipments of new books, as well as some of our favorites.  Opening these boxes has been a bit like Christmas morning for me.  Over the next few weeks I will try to highlight some of the new books that came in.

Jack O'Connor- The Legendary Life of America's Greatest Gunwriter

     This biography of Jack O'Connor is a must for serious gun nuts and hunters alike.  O'Connor was a staple within the pages of Outdoor Life for many years as Gun Editor.  This book follows the path of adventure from his early childhood in rural Arizona to his many years of writing and hunting for OL.  Of course, the book spends some time on sheep hunting and O'Connors' love of the Winchester Model 70 and Winchester .270.

Help Grand Island Bahamas

The bahamas are one of my favorite places to fish in the world and a quick 30 seconds could help this remain the amazing fishery that it is. No gimmicks, no spam emails... just a good cause.

new shipment of books: Great Smoky Mountains

Fly fishing in the Smoky Mountains is tons of fun and something every Cincinnati angler should experience.  There are larger rivers and very small mountain streams.  The waterfalls, trails and fish make this a great experience.

The shop just received a large shipment of one of our favorite books:
Fly Fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park by Jim Casada.  We have both hardbound and softbound versions.  The hardbound are signed by the author.
