Description
Whether debating bamboo versus graphite rods, describing the pleasure of fishing in pocket waters or during a spring snow in the mountains, or recounting a trip in pursuit of the “fascinatingly ugly” longnose gar, Gierach understands that fly fishing is more than a sport. It’s a way of life in which patience is (mostly) rewarded, the rhythms of the natural world are appreciated, and the search for the perfect rod or ideal stream is never ending. It is not a life without risks, for as Gierach warns: “This perspective on things can change you irreparably. If it comes to you early in life, it can save you from ever becoming what they call ‘normal’ “.
With the entertaining style that has already won him a devoted readership, Gierach takes us once again through the fascinating and mystifying world of fly fishing! Even Brook Trout Get the Blues will convince you that “normal” is grealy overrated.
