Fly Fishing: A Life in Mid-Stream: Recollections and Essays

Rating:
Summary: a snobbish view of flyfishing
Review: Once again a rich somewhat snobbish writer thinks he has "captured" the essence of the sport. I was blessed to grow up in a rural upstate New York community near the birthplace of Art Flick, author of A Streamside Guide. My Dad and I fly fished as a means to unwind after a hard days work or to pass a Sunday afternoon. Unlike the author of this book, we didn't "fish abroad" and we tried not to be overly impressed with ourselves.
