About this ebook
A celebration of the beauty and grace of flyfishing through lyrical essays and spectacular photography.
Here is a beautifully written meditation on the art, grace, and style of fly fishing, presented in a photo-driven package that’s the perfect gift for every angler. Gorgeous visuals of the world’s top flyfishing people, places, and things (from the spring creeks of Montana to the ocean flats of the Bahamas) are interspersed with quotes from the greats and more than 20 short, lyrical essays by Peter Kaminsky, a world-renowned and award-winning flyfishing author. With enchanting sections on the art of casting, fly selection, and the life lessons we learn on the water, readers will feel all the Zen, calm—and excitement—of when a cast summons forth a strike.
