Trout Tracks: Essays on Fly Fishing McLennan Jim
Drawn from 55 years of excessive obsession with trout, water, streams, and flies, this collection of essays from Canada's most widely read fly-fishing author since Roderick Haig-Brown reveals the depth of engagement that this sport engenders. Trout Tracks includes pieces on fly-fishing people and fly-fishing places, plus stories of quiet successes and loud failures, in sum revealing the soul of "the quiet sport."You won't learn from this book how to cast farther or tie a knot faster, but if Poised and polished words reveal the flaws and virtues of humanity, the strength of Mother Nature, the beautiful mystery that is a wild trout, and the obsessed's inexplicable need to outsmart a creature with a brain the size of a pea.Fly fishing is considered perhaps the most reflective and graceful of outdoor pursuits, and author Jim McLennan agrees - for the most part.
