Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This little volume recollects true accounts from a fly-fisher's angling log centered about a half-century of the pursuit of trout, sometimes more than one-hundred-fifty fishing outings a season. Settings include New York's Catskill Mountains, Garden State wild trout waters, and the Blue Ridge Mountains of Shenandoah National Park. And time of year was not always a factor. Visit these streams through the author's eyes. But, much more important than the author's outings are several chapters within this paperback that document the life and times of Edmund William Sens, perhaps a little known but significant twentieth century Catskill flyfisher and salt-water angler, to whom this book is dedicated. Additionally, readers will wander environs they might not have known existed; some pristine wild trout waters, some now not what they once were. And you will be exposed to a few trout flies that have captured the fancy of this author, plus a few fish that agreed with his choice of offering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Outdoor Book Award Winner for Outdoor Literature From the award-winning, bestselling author of Cod-the irresistible story of the science, history, art, and culture of the least efficient way to catch a fish. Fly fishing, historian Mark Kurlansky has found, is a battle of wits, fly fisher vs. fish-and the fly fisher does not always (or often) win. The targets-salmon, trout, and char; and for some, bass, tarpon, tuna, bonefish, and even marlin-are highly intelligent, athletic animals. The allure, Kurlansky learns, is that fly fishing makes catching a fish as difficult as possible. The flies can be beautiful and intricate, some made with over two dozen pieces of feather and fur; the cast is a matter of grace and rhythm, with different casts and rods yielding varying results. Kurlansky is known for his deep dives into specific subjects, from cod to oysters to salt. But he spent his boyhood days on the shore of a shallow pond. Here, where tiny fish weaved under a rocky waterfall, he first tied string to a branch, dangled a worm into the water, and unleashed his passion for fishing. Since then, his love of the sport has led him around the world's countries, coasts, and rivers-from the wilds of Alaska to Basque country, from Ireland and Norway to Russia and Japan. And, in true Kurlansky fashion, he absorbed every fact, detail, and anecdote along the way. The Unreasonable Virtue of Fly Fishing marries Kurlansky's signature wide-ranging reach with a subject that has captivated him for a lifetime-combining history, craft, and personal memoir to show readers, devotees of the sport or not, the necessity of experiencing nature's balm first-hand.
