Actually, it is one way to read water with four parts. But that is way too long for a podcast title.
After sharing an anecdote about my failing to read water well, I go into my four-pronged approach to approaching rivers. While not remarkable or novel, I believe that this multi-tiered technique is a great paradigm to help new anglers grasp the concept. It is also a great reminder or teaching tool for those of us who have been at this fly fishing thing for a while.
Instead of just getting out there and flailing away at the deepest pool, take a minute to read the water. There might be fish there.
